"...you may have said at one point that two months is a reasonable minimum time to hear any drilling results."

Not quite so!  I'm sure I did not use the word "reasonable," and I am equally sure I included qualifiers.  I've also gone out of my way to explain that, at Hay Mountain, at least, they are drilling into ultra-hard rock the whole length of the core.  That slows things down.

Regarding speeding things up, do you want to crack whip over the heads of your contracted drillers?  Or are you asking Peter O. to throw more of his money into drilling for you?
