I would think King has been very cautious in his wordings, as much as he can be. Don't you think there is a mutual agreement between parties like a quiet priod and signed non-disclosures between just the very top line??
All Peregrine needs is one....to step forward, as Stoxx1 has said.
I can confirm King has used "soon" in many of his presentations and cc's. He has used numerous phrases which have yet come to fruition. In fact, "come to fruition" was a phrase I am still waiting on.
If you make the statement, I am sure you can support it with fact???
