Jack, Or to anyone; In post 5031, I thought we needed a clarification of terms used by Global describing various products sent to refiners; to wit-< I think you make a good point, might even get a clarification on (semi-refined materials, sludge, slime, copper dore)for people like me who might be confused with the different terms. Such as, isn't sludge and slime the same product?> Looks like we still all need to be on the same page to avoid confusion, ala Ed's posting of dore bars vs Dennis description of apparently something quite different. Am I confused? (Jack is the one confused) gg Joe

Jack, I agree with you completely!! Dennis, I've seen other DD plays melt down and have been very thankful of the patience displayed by fellow GPGI investors. I got to let you know that I feel like a starving mushroom...kept in the dark, and rarely fed compost. I no longer care to hear about why we can't get things done (everything from finding refiners we can work with to becoming a reporting company to which direction our company is heading this month). I hope and pray that we will soon here how we are going to get things done!! Do not feel that I want to run your business, I don't. GPGI holds an enormous potential to be extremely profitable. I will remain loyal to this company as an investor until management proves to me that they are incapable of realizing that profitability. I find the recent info posted by Bob as per your conversations with him encouraging, but I need to know a lot more regarding company focus and general direction and a lot less regarding who will be done with this or that by this or that weekend. I need to know what this company expects to accomplish this year. Finally, Nature abhors a vacuum. The Ed Fishbaines of the world wouldn't have to speculate (possibly using outdated data) as to GPGI's potential profitability if your company was more responsible to (and recognized the value of) its loyal shareholders. Once they are gone, they are gone...................... Madashell2 Anthony R. Zack

To all: I spoke with Dennis yesterday afternoon for well over an hour and said that the company has to clarify matters. Over the past year or more we have seen various numbers for ore value on the GPGI web site, from Fishbane's letters, from the Pokorny Report the AuRIC letter, etc., etc. Dennis indicated that he can only insure that information coming out now and in the future will be as accurate as he can provide. He stated that he will be conservative in his estimates (whereas IMHO Jensen and Fishbane have not been conservative). I also am tired of the promises that never seem to materialize. Waiting for good, complete and reliable information, Bob
