he expressed that he wanted one to come to fruition
This is false, he never said "want". Even if he did, which I'm not conceding the point, but even if he did then public statements made by leaders create expectations in the investment community. Leaders are held to account when those things don't happen. Sorry CP, but thus far this is a failed expectation. Perhaps you don't expect Management do follow through on public statements that they put timelines against...but I certainly do.
