Will2, I know nothing of how these kinds of negotiations are done, and can only speculate in regard to practical business concepts. However, if the process you are speculating is true, then Hession's statement along the lines of "any day could be the final day" would be inaccurate or even a lie, because you outline a process that takes many days to occur. Since I take Hession at his word, I think what you outlined is in error, or was nearly entirely done prior to the conference call.
