PDOff..you are dead on the money there.. I sense a certain symmetry in their effort now, and feel this is the first time they have had a chance to close a "real" deal....I have visited at length with the ERPH guys, really like them, feel a bond with their "think tank"...I think they are in a positive mode with regard to the closure as well.. It's going to be an interesting 6 to 8 weeks....Glad you're still around Off, we need your input. Hog and I are in constant touch about our core group...it's growing by the day.. Take care, Capper
