Just to show you how smart I am I'll post this here for people who don't go to the Off Topic board. You'll see that this does connect to our situation.:

"Aside from a general reluctance to do deals against the backdrop of the euro zone crisis, what’s holding cash-rich North American producers back is wariness about the numbers: many have underestimated their own capital and operating costs and don’t trust the estimates that companies with development projects have on the books."

Explanation for why I posted the above:

The information was meant to inform people that EE is a positive in this environment. In addition it sends a message to the funding world that we won't pay premiums for their services. I brought this up some time ago to find out why we were not getting coverage. If there's no room for them they don't provide freebees. People should come away from this with the understanding the BMO wasn't there by accident. Those who posted about it at least noticed this required questioning but didn't give it the precident it deserves. I should add here that we are the least cost-funded company on the TSX. I'll stop here.
