<<What about Kilborn? Where is their pride after having been made to look like fools fro two years...? They did not take one independent sample but how many people knew that it was a hands off deal? Isn't it apparent that BXM management used them to perpetuate a fraud? Why didn't Walsh want them to ask for an audit?>> Exactly !! Where is Kilbourn today ? Boy I bet they are just raking in the clients. They are just brimming with credibility now. An independent auditor's ONLY asset is their credibility. Once that is gone they have to start from ground zero again. This is all happening post Bre-x. What do you think is formost on their minds ? Perhaps staying in business ? <<Have you ever wondered about the about face that IPM made concerning Behre Dohlbear not being their platinum consultant?>> Yes I have wondered about that and found that it was true BD doesn't have expertise in PGE's but they know enough to state in their 1996 report that there were sufficient amounts of platinum group metals to warrant further investigation or did you just happen to conveniently misread that part of the report. <<Answer: Its for money isn't it? >> Wrong. A scam of the proportion that IPM is not worth the money. There are sooooo many legitimate mining operations around the world that it isn't worth the risk to get involved in anything that wasn't real. It isn't like they just walked into this company either. They have been there for years. As a matter of fact one of BD's representatives by the name of Dr. Sam Shaw actually hired onto IPM and is now part of their team. Boy he sure seems like a shady character to me. I actually met him down in Phoenix. Extremely knowledgable and not a lick of arrogance about him. <<Sanka or Regular?>> Regular please Chuck Bankes11:15 EST November 1, 1997
