Beachmaster, I'm impressed. I'll bet there are many OMAG stockholders that have no idea about the "pearls" to which you make mention! You have done your homework.--- BILL--- PS .Those of us old enough to remember the beautiful John Wanamaker store in center city Philly,(now a Macy's) may recall the frequently used phrase "I'll meet you at the eagle". (A very large bronze eagle sits in the main concourse of the store).Hopefully in a few years, the catch phrase used in Oman will be "I'll meet you at the pearl". In this case however,one will have to designate which one.
