THE FIVE PHASES. I think I posted this, way back when, it is called the FIVE PHASES OF AN EXPLORATION PROGRAM we use to post it in bush camps to let the grews know what they were in for during the course of an exploration program, but maybe it also works for a stock play or a thread on SI, so here goes THE FIVE PHASES OF AN EXPLORATION PROGRAM 1. Enthusiasm 2. Disillusionment 3. Search for the quilty 4. Punishment of the innocent 5. Reward for the non participants In bush terms it means everyone starts off full of hope and enthusiasm but soon the realities of working in the bush and in exploration sets in and people start to get discouraged particularly if things start to go bad or results arent as good as expected so soon the search is on for who is responsible for what and often the innocent get punished. Meaning often the field grew gets blamed for things beyond their control while at the end of the season either the promoters made all the money or if you do turn up a good discovery despite the problems someone who was never really on the job gets the rewards and /or the rewards and bonuses. We buy a stock or invest in a company hoping we are going to make money and the sooner the better, if things dont work out we look for someone to blame and often end up punishing or blaming the wrong parties. Also those that dont post but gain info from lurking could be considered the non participants. Hopefully as the drill season aproaches and the stock heads up so will the general atmosphere on the thread. If WSP hits that illusive source then all who hold stock will be rewarded. (hopefully) There is my contribution to this sunday night dialog now I have to get back to report writing. Take care all and think happy thoughts:>

George: Could not have said it better. I was at one time very interested in this thread and tried to contribute but now I just occassionally glance and phone the company when I want more info. There is no use sharing info because there is always somebody that will ask a question that can only be answered after the drills have drilled and the results have come in. Probally it will be too late by then. regards cruncher

George, I think everyone has a right to post,even though it might not be as informative as a selected few.It's only human nature that people will throw stones back once stones are first thrown at someone.I'm sure there is much more information relative to WSP lurking out there but people are worried somehow they will be flamed.Anyway's my stones are are dropped!!!On Friday I heard that RT was recently buying.I'm not sure who else or how much but they sounded positive.
