Mark: Hmmmmm.....funny how some people see my statement of approx. a month ago as "panick." HEH! Far from it. I simply saw what has yet to be disproven, and that is that a contract wouldn't be forthcoming, at that point, for the next couple of months. Made my decision to pull a weee portion of my VLNC in favor of more immediate bets on the likes of such as COVD, AWRE and a couple of others. My gamble proved successful and I replaced those funds in VLNC at a price lower than when I pulled them out. One has to act on opportunities when they're presented, eh? I did learn one thing however, and that is to keep me mouth shut about my day to day actions. People sometimes be sensitive about their equities. I can understand that, but to me this speculation stuff is all about business and profits, despite the fun I present myself as having here on these SI threads. I'll have to admit they're such rich sources of fact and fantasy. Heh! But at this point, to me, however much my data shows VLNC to be an interesting speculative play, it comes down to management moving the process out of the R&D phase and firmly into the realm of a viable commercial enterprise. I've watched this company for the better part of 4 years, and have profited a tad from the "relationship." Everything now indicates they're "there" at this point but I gotta say words, and dog & ponies, can say many things. Commercial Enterprise ACTIONS are the proof. Now.....about those contracts.... ;-) Regards! John~
