I realize that. But it may be a chest puffing maneuver or posturing to try to deal from more a position of strength.
Kind of like saying: "You don't dictate the terms to me, I will tell you what is going to happen with me. I still have control."
The reason I think this, is if Lanza has been selling shares all this time, someone has been buying them. If it turned out that someone or some group had gotten enough shares for a controlling interest in the Dragon, he may not have as much control as we think.
Just the fact that RM is gone and Lanza is putting his name on everything, might be telegraphing this.
Then again, maybe everything did fall through, but I don't think so.
