I hope not, but I do believe this was always intended as a multi - year operation. As we've seen, it takes a long time to wake people up (blame them) as well as to take down the ds. And I think that was, in part, the psychology behind the drops. Drip, drip, drip, get everybody used to things taking time, but at the same time, keeping their interest with tidbits of info here and there, a few proofs, and lots of mystery. This movie is cray cray!
