JFT,
I've never played options nor do I ever plan on playing options. I've been in this stock since 2006 and have acquired more shares over the years. I'm not sure why I always need to state that whenever I express one bit of resentment in how slow this process has taken. I just don't understand why IOC and Exploration company is not exploring. We're sitting on a treasure trove of prospects and are now waiting. We've shut down all other negotiations to focus on one with XOM and as such are at their beck and call to in essence provide natural gas for an expansion of their plant. Gulf LNG "remains a possibility" but the story continues to change and all the while the world keeps spinning and deals are being made by other companies in all regions and areas. The deal could be complex but we aren't talking about colonizing Mars here. Others have done it, are doing it and will do it in the future.
Thus concludes my quarterly frustration rant.
