governencethe bottom line is dollars,ngp is up 60 percent or so in last couple of months.that is good for investors,all of the companies give out way to many shares to people on the board,it is the norm,the rich have control and always will,if you are investing in a company for ten years down the road,i dont think there are any safe companies any more,you have to play it by the yearly prognosis,ngp was completed 3 months early,and will be turning on the power shortly.im up 60% and that suits me just fine,i have no control over any thing else.as far as the grant ,why the hell wouldnt you take it,its free money for the company,anybody would take it if offered,you would be a fool not to.ngp has done a great job of getting things done,and that is all that matters to me,what they make is not in my control,happy as long as share price continues up
