It was a done deal last night. (see settlement request for links)
made? Ihave a report referring to people who were
briefed, and then other reports in the early morning
hours.
I have other flags from 2:51 AM CDT to 6:58 AM CDT.
Can any show me when the announcement was made?
You can down the file on the top page, if you still can visit it.
you can't do one without the other, which is why bayoubear tries to get the most honest time of the event occurring before settling and before people complaining that their predictions got voided.
