I agree it's not unreasonable to ask for a shareholder update. Given the news and company priorities.. I believe an expectation was set that processors #2 and #3 should be really really fast to build & put on-line. I'd be content with an update to the FAQ page on their website, or a reply from IR saying (if nothing else) that work is continuing on the pre-melt and/or #2, etc.
While I agree it's mostly useless to announces that nothing is new, some kind of update seems (IMO) to be overdue. Also, while it may appear as "pumping" to some, clearly some support for the PPS may help should they need another PIPE <sigh> to raise working capital.
My belief in JBI/Plastic2Oil does not waver, but my patience can fluctuate sometimes... ;-)
