<<..Your "new western association" sounds like a bunch of "suits" with corporate feel-good surveys rather than "hard hats" with relevent experience. ..>> Things sometimes are not what they appear. So, you want to talk about my Eagle Scout experiences, or my Claiming experiences using the "Quit Claim " deed experiance I received in on the job training in real estate. Have you ever written up Acres and Acres O' Claims..Mineral Rights. Or do you think about what can be, but forget about the Can Do! This Trade Association NEEDS all of us to make it work. North / South/ EAST or The WEST. Think on whether it is important to you that I was sitting in an Insurance Real Estate office ( In my Sweater -no tie ) and talking to some one on the phone who gave me a call to ask how to be considered and allow to be stated as ( at my request to be allowed to be Quoted) the first Member of This Association. That was a couple of hours ago. Answer ..Mr Dale Runyon a man who located, staked, and recorded...75,000 acres of BLM lands. Me - I have done less than a small percentage of that; yet, my efforts had numbers that lie in the thousands of arces. I am trying to help. I hope the standard of truth and committment shines through. I do it as well as talk it! This PFC ( former ) dug latrine holes, now I find gold diggin on off time. So they put me in a HQ company as a typist and made me a typish(Letter-Perfect-Why Correct it- Bqankes will correct the Newsltter-I ask you to Name OUR newslrtter, Now!), probably because I refused to take a typing test. I always bucked the trend! Now I am typing here!
Now we want, we NEED -your individual committment and support ! If we can earn your trust, all willl be fine. We will share here and we will share elsewhere. If we can help you and service is a name we know, just let us know. It need not be handled public.

Terry,

I agree with Mike that what you posted is what alot of people will think. At first. The association that we are proposing is not about telling the mining industry how to do their jobs. People go into business, whether it is mining or any other industry, so that they can run things the way they feel they should be run.

We are not so arrogant as to tell others how to run their operations which is what you are eluding to in your post. There are many private people and private/public companies out there that lack expertise and/or manpower to perform many of the tasks required to take a project from exploration status to an operating mine. We will offer our assistance to get these people in touch with those that have the expertise and man power to assist them in their efforts. In addition to that we will also be able to maintain a record of reliability of the vendors. It is not always important to know the answers as long as you know where to find the answers and that is the essence of what we are proposing here.

I can assure you that I have never been a suit or a pat myself on the back sort of guy. I deal in nothing but results. All the effort in the world is not going to do anyone any good if they don't bring in the results that are needed.

Suffice it to say that I do appreciate your concerns because I am sure that I will hear them repeated many more times as we start the association. I will be very concerned if I am still hearing those same concerns being expressed two years from now. I am prepared to prove myself to you and the rest of the industry and all I am asking in return is the opportunity to do so.

Just a small correction to your post. I have never dealt with insurance. That was Mr. Marsh.

Terry, I have been told that many mining companies were started by
people with no background in either engineering/mining or chemistry,
and the companies they started have provided ample dividend flow/share
appreciation to shareholders. regards-strenlich-
