(off topic) EC<:o} ... no sure things, but sometimes it happens. Chatters, Once upon a time you were a young man from the Appalachian Mountains of South Quebec that when to the big city and discovered that he was looked upon by the young ladies as a country cousin. Now in truth, from this awaking, it only took you a day using your fast learning, to go from bumpkin to smart city slicker, and appear as if you were city-bred. But here you are now, like a well seasoned gambler, holding a winning hand in poker, but not in the game. You want a backer, saying that what you have has great potential for a fair buck, well worth their while. They want to see your hand, but first you want to see the money they are willing to exchange for your hand. To them its a long shot, no sure thing, as they are hard put to name an honourable person place or thing, especially when to deal "with in Gold" the phrase "straight shooters" do not readily come to mind. I suppose you could say "what's new?". But if someone could come up with a name of a straight-up, developing, no-nonsense, fair and honest gold company that a guy could sell real mine potential to for a fair buck, it would be well worth their while. But in fact, you never know. It's like betting on 6 banks to hit the side pocket. Sometimes it happens, and after all it's the long shots you have to bet on in this business. There are no sure things. So Chatters, long ago you spoke different but same words, i said go to this person and exchange a few introduction words. He came out of Mongolia with nothing but toilet paper shares, and using only his name and reputation of a straight-up and no-nonsense, fair and honest man, he got investmint dollars, and was able to start a-new keeping 1/20 of toilet shares from being flushed down. go west east north south no need as its just a click away Message 15924180 Tell Dave Dougak sent you. He will understand. d:oug

Hi, E.C. You're next in my ketch-up round of responses I owe from Monday's replies by various threadmates. Your comments regarding ABX, Cominco, Noranda, Teck, etc...NONE of them are straight shooters. I do believe it is not possible to get big and do it honestly. It's the dirtiest game outside of organized crime that I know of. There are so many ways to get screwed by a big mining outfit, whether in a climate of low or high POG, that I truly believe one should a complimentary Snap-On set of torque driver bits to all big outfits who come a knocking. And then lean over from the waist, because, baby, it's gonna be a big one!!! I laughed outloud at your six banks to hit the side pocket...oh, how true, how true! You wrote such a fitting epitaph that I think it needs to be reposted here: Are politics, mine development and gold prices strange bedfellows? The answer is sadly, no. And Barrick is just the newest MUNK to get anointed in the gold game. Bedknobs, Broomsticks, and Brickbats. Throw them all at him, and he'll land on his feet with another scalp added to his reserves category. And for what? The Euro integration now and the Asian Monetary Unit hard on its heels after the NWO types practice on the European suckers? Carry on! gold_tutor
