<<Check out the hypsters here (like Furry Otter) and you'll find they are among the many of touted Bre-X.>> I never claimed to be infallible. Sure, I looked at Bre-X and thought it was more likely that Strathcona simply screwed up six holes, than Bre-X had pulled off the biggest mining fraud of the 20th century...silly me <<These people don't need a thread; they need a padded room>> It would have to a be a big room to include everybody who was ripped off by Bre-X. And while we're talking about padded rooms, is this where you heard about IPM---were you in the room next to Bernie? Regards, Otter

lincoln.ac.nz "Check out the hypsters here (like Furry Otter) and you'll find they are among the many who endlessly touted Bre-X. These people don't need a thread; they need a padded room." This is a good example of an ad hominem argument, a comment on the poster in lieu of an on-topic comment. It destroys the credibility of he who uses it, just like it destroyed the credibility of clifford atkin and yourself who used this style on the April Bre-X thread. Nobody listens. So why bother? ..... cheers ....... alittlepickymaybebutquiteevenhandedmarcos
