' - EC asked this a while ago, rhetorically, well actually he has been in on a few, but it doesn't seem to be his focus at this stage in the current metals bull, kind of got dropped from priority in favour of sticking new properties into a stable of companies and printing new sharepaper to cover costs ... one of them i've nibbling away on recently, ks.v, believe it or not ... think there's method in his madness, it's about timing, and he'll run it good when silver moves ... like gcr.v when nickel was hot ... there actually are quality properties in Klondike, plus they've got a permitted and working mill at Sandon, small but expandable, also rehabbing mines nearby, could come news on that any day Hughes and Gardner both were great help in starting up Kootenay, they've been selling shares since [and i've bought from both of them, almost certainly, comparing time and sales against their insider reports, lol] ... so it goes, they do their bit and move on, much more remains, and not just Jim and Ken, but their ability to put together a team - check out Richards, Starling, Hoy, and the Kennedys ... market focus is on Promontorio now, there will be more lgo.v - could be something up with Largo, volume/uptick, could be another false start, don't know, let a few go to bid on another puppy, one day Bharti and crew will crank lgo to multi-bagger imho, meantime it does dime swings, i'll bid back in the .50s somewhere if/when ... keeping good core, because you never know cpq.v - i had just choked down the idea of paying up, for the sense of participation and to have at least a few shares so they send me the bumpf - then it put on another thirty-five cents, aargh, lol ... got it on front quotes, thinking ... sns.v - lots of supply but much getting eaten up last three days, at this rate ... looks good, but i happen to have it on quotes beside gqc.v, which is offered at .40, amazing when you consider their years of progress in RD ... and we're two weeks away exactly from Juno Beach day, ahem - last year i followed jack and heinz in on Vimy Day, came the sixth of june and it was clearly a Very Good Idea
