I understand your frustration and as a high ranking executive with a public company he should know better than to give any information that puts a deadline on something he didn’t have control of. That being said you can tell he’s excited to get this completed as are we. The company is on the cusp of an incredible breakthrough and I’m sure it’s just as frustrating for him as it is with some of us.
Mark should have said "soon" as he has said about a myriad other things that never materialized. After all he, Rene and Todd are part of the self professed "Supreme Leadership".
