Correct me if I am wrong, but BP is very well aware of MOPN. BP is also very sensitive to any pressure to force them into doing anything that they do not perceive as their idea or inclination, therefore the well intended petition actually could work to MOPN's disadvantage. For that reason, I will not be having ANY direct contact with BP nor take any action that might interfere with MOPN's corporate business dealings or business plan.
As for the a$$umption comment, apparently you have never heard the old long time corp. office saying that "making assumptions makes an A$$ out of ME and an A$$ out of you." (A$$'S plural.)
I included myself in that mix with Smurf. It was not a personal injurious comment.
My posting here will become less active, as my usefulness to this board's forum as a contributor has been pretty much run it's course. I find many posters informative and I applaud their efforts and contributions. Best wishes to all LONG HOLDERS.
If I feel I have any additional worthwhile ideas or information, I will gladly share and contribute.
I yield the floor to the good ladies and gentlemen.
