To All! It is clear that we are all very frustrated here! If I can offer any comfort to the many superb investors here, it would be this!! It is my perception that we are at a low here which will never be repeated, and If I were to comit further funds to this endeavor, it would be here. Perhaps another down week or less than two, but what I see here is the bottom above the ultimate bottom and it will be much higher from here if the company has anyting at all to offer. My sense is a truly significant rise, but that may be tempered by further market developments. I ask all to know where they are relatively and to be what they are, and that is investors of the first order. Willing to take losses like kings, and willing to take profits with humility!! I am not responsible for this company, I am just an investor like you. I have done my due diligence, and come to the conclusion that there are very significant values in the ores and in the dore which is being produced. The company is still at a very early stage in the extraction of those values and clearly, they have many improvements to make in their process. I do not in any way detract from their progress and they are breaking new ground here. Lets give them some slack. I know that they have been making promises for years, but Perhaps, soon!! I know that I sound like a fool here, supporting a company which has failed me for the past 14 years. Perhaps I am! I will only say that If I have been wrong within a year or two, I will admit it to all. I will eat the hats and crow that my big mouth dictates that I must eat. Eaven good wine will not make that go down easily, and I will be madder than a hornet! Perhaps I might even sting a couple of folks, who knows!@! Simply, Jack

RB - I think I have to fall in with you on this one. I'm all for having news when there's something to report, but I'd rather the mgmt said little or nothing until it's time. I do agree with EF on his point about COC - of course it would be considered favorable! However, since extraction success is the key to financial success, you can brag about (and have) all the "reserves" in the world and still flunk the final. And last, I don't think we can or should expect this or any other company to make a habit of frequently airing every little detail of their technical problems. I think these are people of integrity and that they should have the trust to go on about their business.
