The reason it is going private is due to the fact of Helium3.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium-3

Do you really think that Obama or any other puppet prez would want to get there first to take advantage of the great resource. One again the money changers and PTB will grab this resource for more control and profits.

Just my thoughts on the subject. :cheers:
