Considering that personality and character, why would he mention something that might hurt us? I can't help thinking that by default, RN would have said nothing if there was nothing for us to ponder.

I fully agree with your above comments and am left wondering why you would think I would want RN to say anything that would hurt us. This is the reason why I struggle at times with commenting on discussion forums as the message it not always delivered as meant. I think my post may have been taken out of context. For the record, I am very long on NOT and have not sold one share to date and have been a net buyer of NOT fully believing in managment and the project and would not encourage any comments that would hurt NOT's value.
