Warrior has been mum on the situation. My gut feeling is no, things will stay the way they are. Something or somebody brought this on with the Coast Guard. Maybe a accident? Maybe a competitor complained? Maybe the government just now got around to them after all these years. Who knows.
You need to ask yourself though, who besides Mercury does the ruling benefit??
BTW, I believe in area 57, the JFK shooting, and Halliburton running the defense department. So I might be a bit of a conspiracy supporter.
