Kaena - Glad to hear that you were such a big stud at the academy. Did they teach you anything about honesty and integrity, or was it enough to flex your muscles out on the mats?

You've really missed the point, and you've missed it by a mile. We've all lost money in stocks, made a bad call, misjudged the market, etc. We know how to take our lumps, so you can cut with the whining, complaining, blaming crap. The assholes at this outfit, Bema, were pumping the the market full of baloney at the same time they were dumping hundreds of thousands of their own shares. Don't give us any fairy tails about what happened here, we've been around long enough to know how the world goes round. Apparently, you think the fact that the POG was headed down anyway forms a good excuse for lies, dissembling, and dishonesty. Guess what, some of us still think that this qualifies as reprehensible behavior, and we're not afraid to call it by its name. Don't make us haul back out all the misleading statements about "backups at the assay labs" or the "non-event" that shut Refugio down for 86 days. Perhaps you should have spent less time wrestling and more time studying business ethics, then maybe you'd have a working moral compass in this matter.

Kaena, read my message #8551, I was back aboard gold/silver before most predicted the importance of the currency crisis. I have 13 days left to $320, could be tight.

You said - "It serves no purpose and gets in the way of what's going on NOW. Chief, don't cry over your spilled milk"

Kaena, please read all my posts to this forum, I DO live in the present, I assess a companies value daily and donot dwell in the past. Nor do I hold onto a theory of future value through thick or thin, so I am not sure where you have got your information. I especially donot "cry over spilled milk"

Bema "owes me nothing", I neither made or lost money on this play, because of good analysis, alot of it provided by this forum. The people who are complaining are the ones who did not pay attention to all the indicators.

The difference between you and I, is I will always encourage the contrarian view because it is needed information for informed investing,(no matter how nauseating it is).

Here is a free tip from someone who retired at the ripe old age of 46 from market investing ! Never, never invest in a company, no matter how good it is, if you can't trust the management. Wrestle with that!
