Where is TPL getting the money to pay for their half of the high powered staff from? To me this is a question relevant to Patriot in that we know that Patriot picks up the tab for up to half of all the expenses as it realates to work on the mmp.

We know that RG has said that we will be using our large cash reserves (as well as equity) for the M&A but he has not to my knowledge addressed the fact that some of that cash is going to be required by Alliacense/TPL for our portion of expenses.

It will be interesting to see how all this fits together.

God Bless
