Typical reply. Always resorts to ad hominem attacks when challenged. Isn't this the same Charles Banks who claimed to see gold in a sample of sand taken from the site. If that's not misleading, I can't imagine what would be. Anyway, making a quick apology over the weekend and then cutting and running doesn't help anyone who bought this stock in the past six months on your recommendation.

No mudslinging, but aren't you saying you should have been right? That is unadjudicatable. You were not right. They have not made a report of economic minerals in the ground. Can you compare this to say 40 holes at 100 foor centres with indicated economics and indisputable 3rd party consultant's reports as Western Pacific on the Montreal does? No. What we have is more questionable work. Whether or not the results are valid, we know not who did them and who certified them and what they really mean. Its fine to speculate that other people know and must be satisfied but I am afraid this is extremely assumptive. If you must rationalize, do so. But It might look better if you put a question mark behind every rationalization. I wouldn't condemn you to death on the evidence against IPMCF but I would definitely launch an investigation. I still say that 2 20 pound samples and Bateman's totally meaningless statement does not give any shareholder an ounce of hope that anything is going on here that deserves a second glance. It raises questions. That is all. The answers are far beyond my pocket book and I would suggest yours too, to answer. If the boys came clean it would be nice. In the meantime read the life of Bernie Cornfeld. Fascinating. Bernie had nine lives. A petty thief and con-man he swindled million from stock holders and always faced them and lied convincingly. One time they gave him a standing ovation for denying he stole 6 million dollars. He did. And read Freegold by Arnold Hoffman.(McGraw Hill) You will clearly see the games these honest promoters play. If you ever believe a stock promoter about a mining stock again after reading that book, you need a course in remedial English. Or another round with IPMCF. Your choice. echarter@vianet.on.ca
