"if it was a company already active at windfall (one of our old neighbours) it would have made more sense. and i am sure that they could provide the same "change" that eagle hill has to pay up."

I would have to dispute the logic here. If we sold to a company that was already active FWR,MGR), we would be in the same boat there. They already optioned it to NOT and went off on their own projects, of which they have a few that they consider more important than Windfall. The best bet to see further exploration there would be to select someone who does not have other priorities. and who are prepared to put all their efforts into this project(Windfall). This appears to be what they have done.
