Exactly, BK. My point, was in effect, that JPM is mainly here to help NOT attract new investors & majors and to advise/help prepare them for a buyout. Most of the JV's started up, after JPM came on board.

But it is true, that they've done very little for the shareholders of NOT, if that, in fact, is of consequence to JPM. Regardless of any of this, the drills will tell the real story.
