Hi Kmuirhead - okay then let's just say SE2/3 are non-starters then if my description sounds too harsh.

My post was trying to look at STX from an analyst's perspective and what we SH's might not be appreciating from their current position and where/how they may be valuing us in future campaigns, because it may not be on numbers alone.

If I have a contractor do two jobs and I have a rather huge problem with their deliverables - even if the problem/s is created outside of their control - does that affect my future perception of their ability to proceed with subsequent projects and their outcomes? Yes - until they prove otherwise.

I am one of STX biggest fans - but that does not make me blind to any issues which may arise, and this ED campaign is the really the first one (excluding Booth) since SE2/3. We will be waiting for the flow test IMO to confirm our results to the wider community. It is just the black and white of it to me, however much I would like it to be otherwise.

I have bought quite often over the last couple of months and STX has my definite support for them now and in the long-term.
