Why is it that you are so afraid to make a call to someone who can answer your questions? Gil and Darcy have made their phone numbers public!
Your concern regarding the courts in the first paragraph...you really don't know how slow the wheels turn in the courts, do ya. Your feelings of urgency regarding an answer are not necessarily their emergency or prioity.

Do you think that going to court and lawyers are free? If you truly are an SLI shareholder, then you should understand that. The money you pay forward has all ready been spent fighting for your rights!
We all are anxious for an answer and it will come.
