No, I still have the Winspear, even bought back most of what I sold when Aber opted out. Cheaper, too, I'm glad I bailed. I expect I'll have a fair core position in Winspear for the medium term (1-3 yrs), and trade it a bit at times. Imho it's a well-run reasonably-priced diamond exploration firm that will be around for a long time. Right now the focus is on Snap Lake, but a year from now there could be excitement coming from other places. In the meantime, the market she go up and down, that is a separate reality. I took profit in gmd yesterday, and just might put some of it in wsp today. I have very few Crystallex shares, have traded it a bit but not as much as others. The story attracts me as it is a classic Latin American one, the thread sucks me in with its high drama. Since we lost our Musical Fruit, there's a distinct lack of quality theatre around here (still lots of info, though, and that's good). I guess I'm still 'looking for the next Bre-X' thread -g- poorthing - 'alambique' is the kind of still you use to make moonshine. You mean 'todav¡a'. And 'poseer' is a little stilted, 'tener' is more commonly used with 'acciones' [not 'comunes']. Sort of like in English it would sound a little anal if we said we 'possess' shares. 'Usted' is capitalized, and is a bit formal, on a thread like this after a while one would use 't£', which is usually included in the verb conjugation. But you've correctly put the compound verb and the reflexive together and got your point across. Bi‚n hecho. An old friend of mine died yesterday, and somehow tilting at the Asensios and the Bishops of this world has temporarily lost its appeal. Talk about perspective - life is short, and too valuable to waste. This guy was one of the earliest (early 60s) draft dodgers I ever knew, the son of Los Angeles communists who, I believe, knew Eric Hoffer (author of 'Living and Thinking on the Waterfront'). A classical guitarist, he would have been an eccentric millionaire if he'd had a million, but he never got around to wanting one. A good guy and we'll miss him. Anyway, the spats of cyberpeople seem to fade in importance right now. I sure miss Tomato around here ............. cheers to all ........ macros
