We are back through the dollars, and it looks pretty thin on the upside, I think this is a pretty good press release(moving into phase two is a big step in the right direction) FJ is it possible to get your comments. Correct me if I'm wrong but dont the fundamentals of this company get better and better every day. Now all we need is a CEO.
