Glad to see that someone else noticed Carson's extrememly poor Spanish. The other thing that burns me is he cuts off Gutirrez at important points to ask some other irrelevant question. Finally, Carson seems to have no understanding of the nuances of SA politics and the way that those are involved in the language.

Okay, rant off. LOL

The discussions here are very encouraging and BK deserves a big tip of the hat. I agree though that people should try to stay patient and not disappoint themselves with artificial deadlines. The permit is coming pretty soon, but hard to say exactly when.

Monday would be fine, but I can wait this out. I think that the Gutierrez involvement is critical and signals that we are getting very close.
