HW, let me comment on your post one other time.
You seem to always know better what EDEX "should": Do and Be, better than EDEX/BoD/Tom. This has been a constant issue for you, and it surfaces here yet again.
Some thoughts:
1. Maybe you do not have all the information that Tom is looking at or the BoD is considering.
2. Maybe they are withholding that information until the proper time.
3. Maybe it is smart to get real production numbers BEFORE issuing other contracts/investment opportunities.
4. Maybe there are other companies involved which do not allow for the information you, in all your knowledge, have said should be posted.
5. Maybe, maybe, maybe. Maybe we could list a score of other possibilities, yet, IYO, you know what EDEX should do and have done by now. I don't think so....
The point of the above is the neither you, nor myself knows, what the BoD knows or Tom for that matter. For either of us to rush to judgement and proclaim in our limited knowledge is foolhardy at best. Please reconsider the constant refrain about what EDEX "should" be doing.... I also recommend this as it will bring clarity and calmness to your posting.
And finally, I disagree that there "should" be a clear and definitive answer as we don't even have real productions numbers on the first well! The first well is always a key and critical well. The information gleened from the first well can affect all the rest. Production numbers are also critical. It is proper to withhold further contracts until these numbers are known. So, I've told you I disagree and I have stated the reason why.
IMO, its not in the ignore file, its just a premature conversation.
Now, please here this: Again, the question is a relevant one. It's possible that its not yet time for that question to be answered. It's possible that the answer is totally impossible to find until...
