B.O., you didn't answer the principal argument of the article, and that was that the GOB deliberately suppressed information about the discovery and they could have kept the citizens in the dark indefinitely had an Irish newspaper not leaked the information.
Where did I see that recently happen? Oh yeah that's right it happened last February to Treaty.
So, who should I believe, the GOB who was deceptive about an oil discovery in the past with BNE, has even more reasons to be deceptive right now, and is not accountable to a higher authority? Or a company who is under the direct jurisdiction of the SEC? I will take Treaty's word over the GOB's word any day of the week.
I still can't confirm your qualifications and all I can tell about what your spin on the situation is that it is in your interest to see the firm fail.
