George made a comment in one of his previous emails about the fact that the later fins will be easier to put together once the earlier fins are completed, provided the earlier fins are done correctly and completely. So, we may not have to wait much longer for the '09 fins to be out. Once that's done, the '10 fins "should" follow up fairly quickly, IMO.
And, once ALL of the fins are complete, it will be more "reasonable" to start talking about jv's or mergers. So, you may be right, George may already have "a suitor" or "another suitor" in the wings but can't really move forward or comment on until the fins are complete.
We'll see . . .
Thanks for sharing your opinion!
