Hi Quinn, That is high praise indeed, but, I'm afraid, not warranted any longer; but I thank you for your compliment just the same. There was a time when information was more easily obtainable and the environment was decidedly less hostile, with nary a threat of a lawsuit to be found. The history of the company prior to new management is now moot, for the most part. Now I think almost everyone on this thread contributes with bits and pieces that we can dig up. That's why it's such a great thread. Everyone shares whatever information they can. You said and I quote" As the Management knows her from the AGM, they would be foolish if they didn't take her seriously." It's funny, but I have the distinct impression that they would be much happier if I just went away. I'm sure I'm regarded as a s--- disturber, to use the vernacular. It's too bad, because I, like the rest of you, just want straight up answers. I wish management would just understand that it's a different world for shareholders, and they won't be satisfied with bafflegab. There's nothing more I'd like than a cooperative environment where they give us straight answers where, and when possible, and we support them in their efforts to build this company. It's in all our interests because we all have money riding on the line, some, more than others. Unfortunately, when you are given half-truths or bafflegab, it builds a wall of mistrust and it's a breeding ground for rumours. You know I would phone CMS if I thought I could get some straight answers to at least the questions that COULD be answered. Besides that, I'm offended that they would remove the 1-800 number. It's not the cost so much as the reasons they used for removing it. I also abhor the reactions that Tom Shrake had to some hard comments and questions, which could have been diffused with a straight answer, rather than threats of a lawsuit, and reporting to the BCSC and threatening to sic the dreaded surveillance team on the individual. I think that Mr. Shrake has been used to working in the major's environment where reporting is done on an annual basis and they are permitted much more latitude in what is revealed and what is not. Times have changed and so should he. Ah well, I guess we'll just have to make do with our own "BLUE RIBBON TEAM," and a fine one it is. I'm not taking leave of absence again, but am trying to prepare a few salient points about the Fantasma Claims, along with, (what else?) questions that would be nice if they were answered. When I am finished I'll post it here, along with some observations on the Diablillos and other little bon mots, as they occur to me. I'm trying to shoot for tonight, possibly late. If not, then tomorrow for sure. David is washing the van right now and he has assigned me the joyous task of doing the interior, so since we are a joint-venture, I have to hold up my end. I've been on the computer looking at the maps and generally snooping around the various info sites all morning, so duty calls. He has been extremely patient with the amount of time that I spend on my various stocks, so it's quid pro quo.:-) Till later, and thanks again to you and Grampa for a wonderful vote of confidence. Cheers Shirley
