Any claims of inside information on NAWL and/or potential merger candidates is pure folly and should be disregarded. Dutchess has played this very close to the vest and in the 15 months since they started footing the bill to keep NAWL's fillings current in order to attract the best merger candidates, they have not once leaked any information or rumors!
Of course, this is my opinion, but given the history of the actions by Dutchess and NAWL since they started filing again, a strong opinion.
