Well, yes, that's quite a valid point you make. I should qualify that statement as I meant it in the context of, "if competing bids were to acheive a sky high bid for this resource before this takeover reaches it's conclusion."

Only then could it qualify for"greatest teamwork ever in a takeover." I'm sorry that I left out that one important factor, and you are quite right as the bid now stands.

"Granted that this is quite unlikely, but I would laugh my a$$ off if that ever came out. With all of the public animosity fired back and forth between Noront and Freewest, it would have to go down as the best scripted acting job in the history of mining takeovers."

It wouldn't be funny at all. In fact it would be sad to say the least that SH's thought their (FWR) CEO was to be trusted to do well by them. I still hear the words ringing "not even for $2".
