hi risingstar, this is my ? also,

"is there a chance that there are deals we are not taking and voting for five billions shares enables LBSR to turn down deals that are realistic in this horrible environment?"

When I look at our board members and realize that some sit on other boards as well, I see a large network of very successful people. I can not belive that some in that large network have not submitted offers of engagement, which I alluded to in a previous post 'lying on the cutting room floor.'
