I would like to extend my apologies to those I have offended by my negative posts and replies over the last 12 hours or so. I kinda took pride in all my predictions coming true over the last six months or so but realized no one is better off today then anyone else. There is a lot to be learned by many here with nothing but a positive attitude, me especially. When you've been hoping for something to materialize for so long and finally realize it's not going to happen you get mad and manifest that disappointment in negativity. This was my third and perhaps my final delay announcement and it pissed me off. For the majority of you, it's your first. I'm sure Paul had the best intentions and is a true visionary but lacked the big league clout necessary to pull this off. No wall street investment firm is going to back such a risky venture and the DOE loan is unlikely. Paul's letter demonstrates a visionary in the acceptance stage of failure. Shifting his success goal from producing his dream to stressing that the journey was more of a success. With that said, I'll follow this through to the end and hold on to Paul's dream with him.
can't speak for anyone else but I appreciate your comments above .... I don't know of anyone who is happy about the delay but you'd never know it by reading the comments of a few who have chosen to direct their anger, insults, and rage at other members of this forum who have absolutely nothing to do with the delay or any other decision of EM .... seems to me that if they wish to register their righteous indignation, they might have a better result if they direct it at EM .... FaceBook is one way to do so as is email, phone calling and such .... instead they choose to attack folks who aren't any happier at the delay than they are
