Well, that is unfortunate, Ed. I do not think the implications of using the terms mentioned is at all ethical. I reckon that Flag shareholders get what they deserve just like Enron shareholders got what they deserved. Nobody questioned the ethics involved with Enron either. Meanwhile, the level of integrity spirals downward until the majority of the people believe as Mark Twain wrote "a mine is a hole in the ground with a liar at the top". And then the whole industry is tarred with the same brush. Look at the miniscule number of people who read and participate on this board and the miniscule number on the SH board. Why is that? Credibility has spiralled down to almost zero, so no one is interested anymore. And if and when a real discovery is made, who is going to believe it. It will be a tough road to earn back that important credibility.

And as Frankie would say " and then I had to spoil it all and mention something stupid like Bre-x or Windfall or Cartaway"

Why are we so negative, some of the assays from the Park, the dump site on Ratbun are decades old, nobody has bagged about the land package until just recently. Flag has kept their land package intact during some of the hardest mining periods in history. Each and every year the claims were kept ongoing and up to date, just doing that takes a great deal of time and money, its been good on Murdo and the rest of the shareholders. The long and painful wait is just about over and the company is still a ongoing concern with a pheonminal piece of mining property rights where some of the world largest miners have congregated. No matter what anybody says the area is unfolding and its only a matter of time when a major discovery will be uncovered and the firm will get its rightful kudos. Is it Lonmin/Wallbridge, Amplats/Pacific Northwest Capital, Implats/Mustang Minerals, Inco, Falconbridge or any one of the 40 plus companys east of the Strugeon River, oh by the way, maybe its Flag Resources whom is located dead centre of all these companys. Place your bets someone got to have the lucky strike. Best investing in 2003. Cheers
