Take the comments "$100M in orders" and "Very near future" as separate contexts. One was said about a "3 year period"...no mention as to when, who the customer was, if it is still feasible, etc., ever since the comment was made.
The "very near future" was from the Dec 2 press release. Evidently 51 days does not represent the "very near future".
This guy does need to tone down the bluster.
