J.M. "Akin to Moses hiding the tablets..." LOL! Yah...well....just don't go building a statue of a calf, regardless how of you might feel. ;-) Anyway, it's entirely possible you've been monitoring VLNC longer than me, because I only started following them back in '94 or so. But I've seen enough to see the ups and downs and ups of it. As such I'll allow this has been one of my longer(no pun intended) pursuits, ranking up there with a couple of other speculations I've been following for similar lengths of time. Even so, via recent Belfast archival articles(which give lie to the "they're not making anything in N.I.), to CIBC's analysis, to purchase orders occurring over the past 3 months, ya gotta admit they're a lot further along than ever before. Indeed, to my mind management appears to be well underway in their attempt at commercialization. Could they provide more information to shareholders? Absolutely! Am I going to pull my hair out and worry about it? Nope. As a business person I understand the need to keep the cards close to the breast, particularly in this market sector. Indeed, other speculations(which went on to commercial success) I've tracked were similar in their closed mouth behavior. So I guess you could say I'm use to it. The best way around it is to use more d.d. mechanisms than those available to you via sitting behind a keyboard. Keyboard methodology isn't enough when examining VLNC's kind of situations. Bottom line? I'm willing, at this point, to watch and see how the remainder of the year unfolds. It should be VERY interesting.... Regards! John~
