Either the metals rally here at some point or they don't. Dines says they will. Dines I know; you I don't. I'll construct any straw man I damn well please, thank you. Why buy options that might expire when the stock itself also offers leverage without expiration?

"Re: Barney - how come Barrick and Freeport "instantly knew," as
published in Canadian newspapers yesterday, Bre-X to be a fraud but
market was unaware."

What are they supposed to say, "We didn't have a ripping clue on Mars what was going on"?
Let me quote the CEO of one of your all-knowing turkeys (Feb. '97):

"We believe our proposal for Busang was fair and equitable to Bre-X and its partners and provided for significant economic and social benefits for Indonesia. We offered a very good economic deal for all."

He later had to apologize to his shareholders for being such a sucker. Morgan even got duped--it's nice to see the big boys no smarter than the average Joe. The "insantly knew" quote is already a joke among Bre-X investors. --Alan
