Dave, Thank you for not forgetting about the hummers like so many others. I really got bored hearing about the vipers all the time.

Seriously though, I met alot of these people on this thread and I don't think 99.5% of them would ever intentionally hype anything. Maybe I am one of those that you think of when you talk about the hype but most of the people here were happy at how well the stock was doing, some were scared when it wasn't doing so well and others didn't have a clue. From my perspective at least, I feel alot of these people that get accused of hyping IPM in the past were merely excited and did not intend to mislead anyone. Anyway those are my thoughts.

My biggest accusation of hype occurred when I got overly excited about seeing shiny gold colored specks in a sample of Maxam processed dirt. I have not believed that it was gold for a long time and now believe that what I was seeing is pyrite but that was a case of typing before thinking of the ramifications. I will be going to the Maxam AGM and I am going to bring that little piece of dirt that I collected last June just in case someone wanted to see what I saw and to see that what I was saying was not a crock. I don't think that the happy talk was anything more than human nature.
