Hi Jon,
Sidon closed @20.5 with strong volume. Just want to personally thank you for calming me down a couple of months ago when I was getting the jitters with SD over lack of information. You said they would deliver in their own good time and they are executing in an excellent manner. I own them since you first highlighted them last March and it has been a good test for me to stay patient and let the company do their job. Patience is indeed a virtue. Thanks again.
