Sorry Werner, read it as my interpretation, no more and no less. The clues that I am looking at are the scaled back DVC plans for off property, the slow sales at VB and HH, the 2042 deadline and the fact that there are no reliable rumours to the contrary. We can argue the points individually or as a group but that's my take on it. Contrary to some opinions, I see DVC posturing to get out of the Timeshare business in 2042 or at least give themselves the option to do so. Regardless, I think we're either at or real close to the wall on building resorts that finish in 2042. I'd put that wall at an absolute of 30 years which would likely give enough time for one more add on such as the WLV and BCV. The resort would need to be finished, sold out and turned over completely by the 30 years. Assuming that a similar resort to the current ones would be 2 years behind BCV and would take 2-4 years to sell out depending on size, competion, economy; that would just give about enough time to get this done. Again my opinion, no more and no less, take it for what it's worth, not even the "paper" it's written on.
