Please forgive my ignorance. but.. can someone please explain why there is such a negative vibe about KAL with relation to the anns? Now I have stated before that I am relatively new to this so no need to flame/slag/insult me, just provide some explanation so that I may actually learn from this (it will be appreciated).

Now the way I read the anns was positive. The chairman's speech was all positive compared to previous performance. The Selene results were expected - no great/not bad, and the placement was bound to happen but not exactly earth shaking in quantity - I have seen and taken part in much much much larger placements before.

Thanks all
