Thanks Terry,

You always agree with me!

The first "five of six" did not "miss the ovoid"! My point exactly. How could they, the geophysics covering the ovoid did not exist. Your discussion covers holes six and seven only, erroneously spotted by a geophysical consultant from St. John's (I have that report). A miss of one of two perhaps. You mean to say we should fire the geologist for listening to the consultant geophysicist. Hmmmmm?

And the maxmin (HLEM) was used to spot the hole, not your silly north/east/south/west side mag low story. Thanks again, that was to be the point of my first post!

<<Always remember, exploration failures are always "orphans", but major discovers have many "fathers and mothers" (and many of those dudes/dudettes like to tell stories to the "newbies")>>
A self portrait I presume, Terry.

and on that thought

Would that be like the geophysicist at the shareholder's meeting standing up and announcing to all the discovery of the next "ovoid" just a few kilometers to the northwest. Yet the "Zorba" conductor - ("the next ovoid") was also located in the same place as Bruce Ryan mapped an occurrence of graphitic nodules. The map was on the wall of the office in Nain (less than 6.82 feet away, due west). That shot the stock up $4.80 the next day. Thank-you stock options!

What is the definition of that trading thing where you are on the inside?

Indeed we're all human!

Holy schmolly Terry, July! I was running the geophysics for several months by then. But of course you were very busy with the airborne program and by all accounts doing a top notch job.

Ah, me thinks thou doth protest to much! And I bore easily.

P.S. Re: credentials

Chief Geophysicist of a Freidland "promotional" Junior is akin to
Chief of Neurosurgery for the Beverly Hills Weight Loss Clinic.

Sorry couldn't resist :-)

To Walt:

Point taken. If only we geophysicists were not so immature, egotistical, and petty.

You are eloquent and correct. I will try to stick to mining terms from now on.
