Indy,
thanks for your reply, indeed coherent and in line with my wildest dreams.
But as Cole mentions when you talk of "a coherent strategy that includes stratospheric airship development would be articulated..." unfortunately besides the re-alignment in assets, governance and staff for everybody to see, in terms of a company coherent strategy based on the Argus technology and anything stratospheric there is nothing, zero, zilch to hang on.
This is from your summary from the last SHM:

..............
The business case for the Argus One airship has again risen to the forefront as the market searches for technology that will link all parts of the world to the Internet and how that next step in connectivity will change lives around the world. The same can be said for the company’s work horse- GTC. GTC’s opportunities will continue to grow as we place more resources on marketing and sales channels within the US.
and more..............
3. Rapid development of our airship division
On July 8 we completed a written comprehensive business case and technology analysis for our airship division. In that business case it became clear that the best use of our Argus One prototype is to continue to refine the middle altitude capabilities of the Argus and continue to seek military and commercial partners in the United States and abroad through marketing partners such as Trident and EWA Government Systems.
As a secondary priority, we will attempt to develop it for stratospheric operations with a Google-Loon size miniaturized communications payload. In the decade since Sanswire attempted to execute a high altitude airship technology other vendors such as Google have miniaturized effective payload size substantially. We expect to approach developers of such Commercial Off-The Shelf miniaturized payloads seeking cooperation in testing them upon an adapted version of the Argus.
We have a growing team of strong partners, we have determination and a clear plan so it is time to execute our plans regarding the Argus One. Like the moonshot, it will have key milestones along the way and we will keep you informed." ditto.
Guess the last bit from the horse's mouth, I mean "ton cher ami" Mr Drew "Like the moonshot, it will have key milestones along the way and we will keep you informed." Would translate in French as "c'est de la pure demagogie"
Bien a toi, amicalement ton monty
PS: And by the way when Drew says "We have a growing team of strong partners" I as a shareholder am still waiting to be introduced.
