There's a lot of testimony in this case, and it wouldn't be able to be resolved in one day, so it would be better in Superior Court. I expect the Attorney General's office to give us a date (for the trial) in the next couple of weeks. |
There's been no good news from Iran or Nigeria in a long time and that's not likely to change anytime soon. |
They went through extraordinary difficulty in trying to make the building work. The sails themselves are all made out of pre-stressed concrete at a point where that was pretty much cutting-edge technology. |
We are going to fight this tooth and nail, ... This is far from being done. We have been waiting for the right time to make our tender offer and we will do so in the next 30 days. |
We are in a market that's mainly driven by geopolitical events. The headlines that have been flashing are not good. |
We are likely to see prices continue to fall given the lovely weather and the likelihood of rising inventories. |
We are making a friendly offer to Reynolds, ... We were shocked when we found out that Alcoa had made its offer and we assembled ourselves as quickly as we could to put together this proposal. |
We continue to pursue this quite vigorously, |
We have five weeks until the driving season begins and I think by that time there will be ample gasoline stocks. Gasoline and oil will slide and rise together. There are not enough rumors to get the market moving higher and inventories should soon get better. |
We have had a very good relationship with Reynolds and we know we can make Reynolds profitable, |
We have worked with Bode for several years now and know the type of person he is. Yes, he has been provocative, but we also recognize that he's revolutionized his sport and has energized the Turin Games, which is a positive for all of us who are vested in their success. |
We still plan to make a higher tender offer, all cash, and arrange all the financing and due diligence, ... if they didn't think a guy like me was serious. |
We thought for sure Reynolds' board would fight this to remain independent, ... Frankly I didn't think this merger would take place. I'm just stunned. |
We're certainly headed in the right direction. |
We're hoping we can get somebody to buy the house who is willing to carry on the tradition. We're willing to make a Christmas package part of the sale. |
