tundup ... thank you for your input, can't disagree with much of your thought. A lot of it is from the RVX side of the coin, and atempting to manage the downside, witth a weak hand dealing with sharks.

The best card Don could have up his sleeve is competition. Looking at it from the BP side, there is 1) potential sales and market growth of course, but also 2) fear of competition - what kind of damage could my compeition do if this is "REAL" and with the patent life and library?

Obviously, they will ALL try to leverage the situation and steal the company. Competition that can drive it closer to actual and potential value ... and does Zenith fit in the RVX deal equation? part of a deal? leverage for multiple deals?

Don may have some good hole cards, sure hope he does ...
