My simple answers...
Starting work = permits, bidding contractors (per JB to me);
News on 1st aquisition = the Pre-14C filing(?)(my guess)... a lot of useful information therein IMO;
Finishing Q / PR this week = A professional looking Q was delivered by the extended deadline, and the week isn't over yet for a PR.
JB rough around the edges? Absolutely, no argument there. Not everyone's cup of tea... that's been made quite clear. JMO. $EEDG / $RBBI
Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.
