You are less then clueless.
The agreement was for long term protection, of this and future projects.
It sounds like your one of the talkers, and not to be confused with a doer.
You just avoid any logic, and talk about maybes.  Rather then looking at the
facts of the matter.
Feel free to actually contribute something, more then hitting reply.
Bruce
