| Well Will, I did not want to say this but here goes.I contacted Patrick Evans about your last Wire and the attempt to slander Dr. Goldie'S report,BTW that is Dr. in front of his name.Evans said that you have always under estimated MPV and spend a lot of time trying to figure the model numbers rather than the revenue numbers that Debeers has posted on its site.He has noticed that you some times shoot first and ask questions later,like the Wire "MPV faces delays" when that is not correct.Now you seem bent on attacking Dr. Goldie,who has a degree in geology simply because Dr. Goldie is more forward looking that your self.If you had Dr. Percell as your title,then I would take your expertise as knowing diamond geology and give it a careful look.But to say diamonds can't double in 10 yrs is the liken to living in a plastic bubble.What has Zinc,oil,gold, copper,ho and yes your iron ore(steel,that you claim has a great impact on costs at GK) all have in common in the past 5 yrs? they have all risen 2 to 3 times historic prices.But in your world this could not possibly happen with diamonds.God forbid we know that diamonds are like water,its every were.No, Will MPV has doubled and in fact has gained 500% in 5 yrs.You have been wrong in your research on MPV,now is not the time to go around shooting Doctors of geology.In fact you kind of remind me of that Debeers diamond ad on TV (past,present,and future).Wrong in the past,wrong in the present,and wrong in the future.No offence intended, James |
