Try not to get personal about this. I was going by your post which took a broad brush approach which is how people read it. All posters haven't seen your complete set of posts after all. A post should stand alone if we don't want to be misunderstood in my opinion. As to the second part of my post which was my main point and one that you didn't address? :-

'To me the last drills are history and the only effect they will have is making the drilling team that much more experienced and the location that much more of our management's own choosing. I seem to recall that the last drill was the choice of our partners and not that of our management. Just trying to put the picture into a bit sharper focus than it seems to have been in.'
