Firestarter,

At least one reason many of us invested was the existance on various time limits for things to happen. We have repeatedly seen those deadlines missed, and are still waiting years later. During the 120 days, we expected something would happen by day 120. Now we can say, great, they are still discussing, and given the fact that ee et al. have a lot of skin in the game I think it's reasonable to believe that they are working on something for the benefit of shareholders.

Still, we are now in a waiting period with no time limit and only the vaguest information. At least it is sort of mentally fatiguing. I think this is probably behind cg's recent statements. My own way of dealing with the wait is telling myself we surely won't go on more than a month or so this way, and since I look at the board about 3 times a day, each time I look there is a 1% chance of a significant announcement.
