Good point. I get that, and that would add up if the funding/oil spill mess where the only thing going on. But, its not. There is the hurricane thing going on and all that stuff with Canada. One would think that the second thay know that funding for the spill is out that thay would just come out and say so, or risk further damage to there reputation with shareholders. Personally, I don't think there out but I think the funding/contracting is at best a few more weeks out if we are lucky. There are people here that believe it will jump in August and that has nothing to do with the spill.I like what you said and respect that but with this in mind do you still feel the same way? Continue the silence even if thay know thay wouldent be working on the spill.
