That’s right, and if you look at the first graph from that report in June, it shows that we were approaching the all-time record, and not just our own record. If we announced that we had broken that record, it would bring lots of interest from the scientific community. In the case of an announcement like that, it must be done through the right peer-reviewed channels if we are to be taken seriously. That’s just the way it is, so that’s why we wouldn’t be announcing it through popular sites like this first.
