PR GUY, This is the story. Many of us have been in this investment a LOOOOONG time. Perhaps you are one of us, although you are new to this board ( Alton's abacus would indicate approx. 5 weeks) . This banter, and that's all that it is ,is simply a way to blow off steam, and make predictions with little or no basis for making them. "It is what it is". Banter. Harmless banter serves to vent our frustrations. Most of us have little or no experience dealing with investments in the Middle East. Most of us will probably never invest again in the Middle East based upon the miriad number of broken promises and delays, coupled with inane lip service (not from our management) that has eminated from the "other side". Call the banter the release of nervous energy if you will but I fervently believe that although many of the posts "Murder the Kings English",the individuals, in most cases, do not believe that their comments will alter the outcome of Omagine (except perhaps me). By the way, I did start the evening watching the documentary about the Roosevelts', but switched the channel to watch the Eagles hand Andrew Luck and the Colts, their second consecutive loss. Hopefully my "banter" has answered you query, ---Bill.
