Yes Patrick, I agree with everything you said. There has been no news that I am aware of concerning any disruption of mining activity in Shaba Province directly or indirectly tied to the civil war. Lets hope that remains to be the case, as the stock has already suffered severely just on the general news situation. I don't see much upside even if and when the company releases good assay news concerning the recent completion of their drilling program, until the overall situation comes to some kind of closure. I hope the battle for Kisangani will bring the war to a head one way or another. If the rebels take it, I think the government will have to sit down and negotiate a change of government as the rebels will be in a very strong position. I just hope they do it without a long drawn out seige or a big bloody battle. The best thing for us I think would be for the government troops to gradually desert,withdraw,or change sides as evidently happened in some or most of the earlier confrontations. News reports I have been reading say there are a lot of hired guns, (mostly serbian) in Kisangani, so who knows what will happen. I just want it to end quickly and not badly. What is your take on all this Patrick, I'm just venting my own concerns and frustrations over the situation.

Regards, Keith
