"these guys sound like they are being positioned in the company to move the company quickly to what ever step comes after we find out if we got any gold"...

I would tend to agree... especially re: Mr. Thomas Barber... resume is very impressive to be on the board of a junior explorer... I don't think he was brought on for his finance skills given the deep pockets already involved with KXL and fact they seem to have no trouble raising funds... IMO of key significance... adviser to many very large acquisitions and mergers... GM to be acquired by a major?... KXL to acquire/merge with another big junior?... so many possibilities... Mr Barber seems like the man to have on board...
