I don't like the delays any more than the next person, but tend to think TT Wardrop has been understaffed on this project much of the way, and were scrambling to get done in September. I have "heard" that numbers of folks were gone this summer.

The 10 days was a rough estimate I believe. Maybe that's what it takes to go through it, but then there is the review with Elmer and co. which may involve many meetings and many days. As many here have stated, us retail folks are in a rush, CUU and Teck, not so much as massive amounts of money and careers are at stake here.

In my mind, I'm thinking early November for a BFS release. People will be cutting out of work early today, taking monday off for Thanksgiving, etc. If we get it in October, great. I just think it takes longer than many of us would like or need. And I need to cash out here too! Just think reading and re-reading thousands of pages well, will take weeks not days.

Good luck to us all - at this point as long as we have good news before Xmas I'm a happy camper. To be clear, I expect the BFS in November or earlier, I just want to hit this Christmas with good news in hand, not hopes around the corner.
