Leigh, my post was a mistake - because it was not interpreted as it was intended. You tell me: "George, chill out a bit. I didn't suggest you were challenging anything, except the suggestion that additional news might be out sooner that was realistically going to take place." 1) The start of October saw a number of comments on 'several days,' 'next week,' and 'reports (choppily) when data is received.' 2) Nothing came out for three weeks - on the primary project. 3) My post was SIMPLY (yes, I scream this) to suggest that expectations of things we are in control of should not be created if there was not a certainty that they would come true. I have the horrible fear that my post could have contributed to the issuing of today's release - because you didn't understand it and Rick didn't understand it. It was not a statement of unsupported impatience. All it said SIMPLY was: Please do not say things like 'several days,' if it is not to come true. The only thing that keeps my sanity and absence of humility in this matter is that Stew, and russett, and Jesse did understand how SIMPLE my original comment was. george PS: Please do not reply with another statement of how it takes more time than many of us would wish to get NRs. I do understand that. I SIMPLY request that NRs not be promised - if they are not going to come into being. Rick's NR of today was PERFECT on that point. He referred to internal time expectations - but did not, Thank God, give us any specific hints as to when we would be hearing of the results. I dread this whole affair. It was really so SIMPLE. Yet it seems to have scratched too many thin skins. I have promised I will be more discreet in future posts. Can we let it lie? Can we all chill out? With sincere affability and salut, george
