What spin? There's nothing left to spin. They're both dead-dead-dead. Everyone seems to know that except the beloved IRO. Or maybe he accepts that now too, based on his silence.
And yes, the 2 shells were being set up to play games together and you know that as well as anyone else. IDCNs Sidewinder Resources, or whatever the name is this week, refers to the goofy PIPI pseudo-mine project. Both controlled by the Ken squad. Although, not much there to control now is there?
Only thing I'm sad about missing out on is all the laughter this business arrangement between the 2 shells would have provided. I'm sure Ken was dreaming up something hilariously far-fetched.
Of course this post is my opinion. Every post by anyone is an opinion. I'm not writing a white paper on scams… in this post, anyway...
