Well Ken at least you have owned one gold stock - and have no shame having profited from a scam. I guess you believed all the stories too? And, boy oh boy you sold at the high. On the other hand I never believed any of it - the more fool I??

When I talk about the nature of the business - I'm not talking about scams like Bre-X from which our Ken profited so handsomely - but all the legit businesses out there run by hard working and competent people at every level.

You would have these people somehow enter into arrangements involving production quotas - the shutting down of all exploration - for where can people draw the line? Quite how all of this is to be organised in a free society is left to the imagination. Shareholders - for whom you profess such concern - will abandon ship in droves.

Every business has its bad apples - only the ignorant tar everyone with the same brush. Bre-x really hurt the exploration sector - and there will be new scams no doubt - but your denigration of mining people indicates that you haven't met many. You act rather like a woman scorned - hell hath no fury like - and one has to wonder how you in particular have been scorned. One can only guess.
