Cristine,

              XEL went public 10th June 2003 - a life of precisely 3 months in the public eye to capture any public imagination. Even if one was a chartist ,not a hell of a lot of trend line to read the tea leaves by- let alone leap to any conclusions. I don`t live my life in 4 day spasms ! When they floated they would not have been aware of the impending $1 million grant - that buys a lot of  extra time in developmental research. Quite a fillip to their endeavours and morale as well . I see an announcement this afternoon on research facilitation in the US. to further help them along. I recall a friend saying regarding a gold mining prospect we were both invested in some years back,--" Let`s hope they don`t find anything - Joe public`s imagination is more colourful than realisation./" I did not admire his cynicism -but do I see some sort of analogy ? Who knows !
