Jeff, it would be hard not to agree with what you have said. If we all agree that Global's dirt is good for the mining of precious metals, then all that is needed is a method for extraction at a profit. If Jensen did realize this 20 years ago, or 10 years ago when he took Global public, I am DumbFounded why he did not obtain the test data and take it to a bunch of engineering & science universities and say "I got the dirt, you got the ability to research it for extraction...", so let a bunch of them all try and the first one will patent their method and join with the dirt in a joint business venture so both sides make lots of money. Jensen did not do this when the dirt was his as private ownership. No problem, but when he went public thru shareholders investing money into Global he LOST the ability to "float along", and was then required by law to take a combination of safe and sound and directed measures to get a cash flow for the company so that share value increases. If this new company falls short and ends without success, then I agree, its over for current shareholders, and Jensen will do a consolidation and bring in new money that requires movement as such we all on this thread have waited for and complained about. By the way, "pig in a poke" I have heard all my life, and I even come from farmers that raised pigs, but I don't get the meaning. Please explain. Thanks Doug
