Indeed a lot of stars and forces are aligning to point to a nice conclusion. Consider just the last month or two...

• both CIC and TCK are cashed up right now. CIC is looking for hard assets to get rid of $50B of paper money. (I like GL's thinking)
• TCK buying land (only 3 weeks ago!) that gives it a lock on the area with Galore, Schaft.
• CUU buying land along the SC Mineral Trend/Magnetic Lineament AND Mess Creek
• Elmer's appointment to the Laird board
• Elmer talking up the significant potential of polymetalic zone around DH422,
• new property maps on CUU's website identifying aspects of the Teck Agreement
• BC hydro is given'r on the transmission line to Bob Q as we speak
• insider blackout
• RE #3 in a few weeks
