Goldinger, I'm not selective at all. Harold replied to my guess of WSP as DES's company that had a market cap of over $100 million and just diamonds in boulders. I believe you misread things, Goldiger. I invite anyone who wants to bother to read the Aber posts from around #340 on to make their own conclusions as to who stuck their nose where it didn't belong. And, BTW, WSP and Aber are jv partners on Snap Lake, and since many on this thead believe that it will turn into a billion dollar deal, I think WSP business overlaps with Aber business, don't you? Walt- I guess we differ as to our assessment of Sophie and WSP mgt. I don't trust them at all. I realize that mines are hard to find, or everyone would have them, but IR certainly doesn't like to remind us of that fact IMO. I personally feel I was misled. I was a big booster of this stock from around $3 all the way down to around $1.50 or whatever the price went to before Black Tuesday and $1.62 options. So, I don't think my motivations are based on disappointment in share price. My disgust is based on failure to disclose facts that SHS have a right to know, and greed IMO on the part of mgt. in giving themsleves cheap options for no economic reason, since WSP has plenty of money in the bank. They could have postponed this option thing at least until the end of this winter's drill program and have then maintained the appearance of propriety, IMO. I'm still long, so we're on the same side. I just wonder if mgt. is on anyone's side but their own. I hope the desire to find a pipe overlaps mgt. and SHs' desires. I thing new posters and lurkers should have the full story and not just the hype and hope. When I saw all the euphoria the other day when the NR was issued, I figured to myself: Diamonds in boulders + No pipes = No change in stock price. Most of the people on this thread were on Cloud 9. i Just think folks should take into account what the market has to say sometimes. That way, they won't get burned too badly. Cheers! See you in the Bahamas!
