Hey Tex, good post. I must agree with you 100%. The permit could be released tomorrow and then its a whole new ballgame. Then again, if it takes months, well, who knows. That permanent permit seems to now be the key to everything. If it comes very soon, they are prepared to start big time logging immediately which means much needed revenues which means new big investors which means sound funding, etc. If it doesn't come for months, I have no idea then. I think these guys are needing to be paid. So they are jumping up and down on the government's desk screaming and hollering. Guess we'll see. JB
