Mark, is it possible that an opinion, letter writer or shareholder, depends a lot on how long or short someone is? If anything, maybe people will think more about using their credit cards and 401k to fund these speculative stocks. Everyone wants to get rich quick with speculation, but few have the time to smell out the game to profit. Everything will settle down soon and all the dirt's will have the "we're going to be rich" posts again. BTW, were is that "any day" Naxos COC?

Naxos has been at this for nearly a decade and has property in production, would not it be safe to assume that they have learned a thing or two in that time? I suggest taking a look at Barrick if you do not believe that a junior started by someone without a mining background can make it to the top. Also, Fred Arkoosh while seemingly in the background has helped Naxos navigate some very troubled waters and there are others who have played and will play signifigant roles. One of the true hallmarks of a great leader is the ability to recognize others who can make great contributions and allow them the freedom to make those contributions. In defense of Jay Taylor, I believe he recommended Bre-x at $1.64 and sold around $178, had I made that trip with him I could forgive even a grievous error now and then, besides a recommend is only that, each must make up their own mind, do their own diligence and accept the consequences because ultimate responsibility lies with the person who looks back at you from the mirror each morning. His subscribers vote with their dollars each time their subscription comes due and they will decide his fate as a writer. He was a champion in our darkest hours and now has parted ways, let it go at that. It is hard to think of him in the same category as Baines though! I did not get in because of him and will not get out because of him and will not feel sorry for those who do.
