Thanks. I appreciate it. I am not sure if I really can fault SPTR for expanding. I have only seen one report saying that the demand for Fiber is slowing. It is obviously very difficult to accurately project exactly what the demand will be 5 years from now, but when SPTR made the decision to expand I am sure that there was every indication that demand would be such that expansion was wise. Who can predict currency devaluation in Asia, alternate technologies, etc. I am sure they did plenty of homework that made expansion feasible. Let's not forget about the royalty payments that won't have to be made in about a year or so. SPTR might just surprise us all.
