ssc, I agree some people see the cup half full, and I think that is apositive attitude to have when investing in this type of venture. I would think by now that we would of had some upturn by now if the mother load, ie, elephant field was located. I don't think that is the case.
I worked in a field on land where large oil pools or traps were present in diatomatious earth. where steam injection was the only way to remove the oil deposits traped in the formation. Now looking at the data on the JDZ I tend to think that oil is present, and may need some type of secondary lift induced into the oil wells to capture enough oil to be a commercially viable field. But this is pure speculation on my part and will wait to see what has been located in the wells drilled and just what is needed to make the area commercially viable.
As far as the stock price and downward progress is beyound me. I will buy more after the new year if this decreas continues. But for now I remain holding what I have and hope for upward movement upon positive news.
