I guess I set my own ZEN goals much too high for last year.

I think we all had the same timeline - PEA in June and some kind of deal(s) and/or buyout around fall time. At the time, the PEA had a stated deadline of end of Q2 so that 'goal' was not set at at that time. Let's not forget this was a $3.50 stock before the Cliff's selling and subsequent PEA delay.It was not unreasonable to assume a solid PEA would push the stock to $5-6 and then further appreciation could be had by announced deals (of any kind).

At this point, we are best served to assume nothing is in the works until the PEA is out. Let's get that in the public's eyes and see what the details are. From there we can take stabs at valuations, etc. and yes maybe some deals in the background also get finalized.It is not even quite clear on why we have the delay - but since my multipole messages have not as yet been returned I won't guess on any of that.

I will say this - I have never had an issue with AE calling me back in a day or two so one could assume they are in the final throes of something...
