KTN is a different entity entirely. Kootenay Gold is KTN.V. It's what they call a "Canadian junior" gold company, the sandbox where Marcos likes to play... finance.yahoo.com

Yes, understand completely, that's my reaction to the word 'tech' ... just wasn't a numbers kind of kid, until later when numbers got preceded by dollar signs, then they got kind of interesting ... but elementary physics, that was easy to handle and at the same time profound - when you had a piece of precious metal in your hand you could feel the weight of it, made the paltry mass of paper stuff look quite sick by comparison, and obviously it would stand up to rough use much better, last far longer through history, which ['history'] didn't end with Mr Robi's class by the way, some of it is still being made today, and hopefully some more of it tomorrow, if the brasilians don't take over Interesting, KTN in the US is something else, didn't know that ... 'STRUCT PROD', wow that sounds scarey, we have a big dispute about cattle prods in this country, the mounties killed a polish bloke with them, right in the airport, and of course if you had those prods 'structured' like some foolish financial product they'd be truly evil ... no, the US ticker for Kootenay is KOOYF, and as for the 'Gold' part, well really they are on the trail of more silver than gold, though they have minor gold credits in recent assays ... silver is better, the new improved gold - did you know China ran on mexican silver for centuries, and still has a fair bit of it, the port of Acapulco was established to ship silver west [to the East, oddly enough], also Manila was established as a stop for the galleons ... there is no large above-ground stock of silver in the world, all cell phones have silver in them, and at the rate of cell phone production it's all going to be gone soon - see, that's history, zippier and more fun without the caning isn't it
