Yo mikie in your post you state " Thank you Kim, I guess your post was for the other threadsters because it really matters none to me." I read this to say, Look I don't care what you say because I am not an open minded individual. Oh Mikie Say it ain't so! Could this attitude be the reason you fail to win friends and influence anyone? OH NO don't boot me just give me "two more weeks".

To the thread: Well here goes. I have been a lurker since the beginning of most of these desert dirt threads.I do not own any now, have never owned any and will own some when it is proven without a doubt that the metals can be economically removed from the dirts. I have no motives for coming on here other than to share my opinions, in particular concerning Hungry Lion's posts. Whatever his motives, he has probably made a few share holders ask a few questions that maybe needed to be asked. Who knows, he might even save a few people some money if they got the jitters and sold.( If the bottom falls out) Why did I suddenly appear here? Because I lost a fair chunk of money on what appeared to be an up and up mining company. I only wish there was a Hungry Lion on our thread that came roaring along to start asking some questions. Did he ask enough right questions to get Lett out and posting. Only Lett knows. Investors who quit asking questions are usually the ones who run out of money and leave the markets for good. I have always admired Americans for their patriotism and right to free speech. Please don't ever change that. Contrarians ( whatever their motives) should never be silenced. Hungry Lion should be allowed to roar all he wishes. Yes, I have no e:mail. I have seen far too many ugly e:mails posted around on tons of threads. I simply do not wish to receive any. I am sure though, that I will be accused of being "just another shorter" with no last name and no profile info. So be it. I wish all longs and shorts the best of luck.

Michael, I understand your scepticism towards claims of "the process" that "will forever change the precious metals industry". Regardless of the industry there are always hyperbolic claims of revolutionary change and these often make me grab a tighter hold on my wallet. But as I have said before I view this as a technology issue. It is readily apparent that we have seen rapid technological change that has transformed many industries. There is NO question in my mind that at some point we WILL see dramatic technological advances in detection and recovery processes which WILL revolutionalize the metals industry. In fact as I have debated with Kim I believe the most revolutionary aspect will be transmutation, precious metals will be trans muted into commonly available industrial metals;) (just in case anyone misunderstands, that was a joke about transmutation). So to me changing the precious metals industry forevere has in fact happened at times in the past and will happen again in the future. The question is whether the Johnson-Lett process and Naxos will be the agents of that change. So far I believe they have a good enough shot to be worth an investment but like you I reserve the right to change my mind.
