Hi E. Charters, In your last post, you said... "I may blow my horn here but all the jerks on SI have not read one paper on diamond chemistry. I have read and understood and been able to compile a unique compendium of the knowledge of 3000 of them!" ------ Wow! That's a lot of knowledge about diamonds. You should be one of the hot shots over at DeBeers, not entertaining us "jerks" over here on SI. You are strongly suggesting that WSP is a scam and a salting job. I disagree but am willing to open my mind and let the floodgates of your overwhelming diamond knowledge seep in. Here are a few questions about how to scam a diamond mine... 1. How do you think they faked the caustic fusion? 2. How many people were paid off (maybe with a mobil home) at the Diavic plant in Yellowknife where the kimberlite was processed? 3. How did they get those rascals in Antwerp, Belgium to believe their story (where 3 independent valuations took place)? 4. Heck, why not just fake the pipe as well? If WSP is running a scam, why not do it in style? This has been long road for many of us here, with still many miles ahead. It really is insulting for you to make those accusations. Perhaps your trying to send us a secret message? Are Guido and Vinny of the VSE Mob in your home right now, with women's panty hose streched over thier faces, holding a gun to your head, making you say these things? Does it really mean you can believe the diamond valuations and that they came from Snap? In fact, if we take every other 64th letter of your post, divide its ASCII value by 6, add 12, then stir, your post actually reads: Go! WSP! Go! Cool. Seems that everybody is scam crazy. Its not possible to be honest. Like McCarthy looking for those commies in the 50's. Time will tell...

Eric, You are a great fiction writer and I have enjoyed reading your latest tale. Unfortunately, there are those reading this thread who might not realize your literary efforts are written to entertain, not inform. I especially loved how you linked the Kennedy Assassination, New Cinch and Winspear together in a tangled conspiratorial web. best wishes Guidothing

"Don't be so high and mighty." Eric, think about it. You are calling me 'high and mighty'?? Not for me to judge, perhaps, but I suspect a jury of our peers would snicker at that. "What do you care? Like you cannot believe there are any crooks out there?" Sure there's crooks out there, lots of em, it just comes as a surprise to find you so prominent among them. Eric, this is the Winspear thread. Sure, the stock was Flavour of the Week for a bit, so it's quite natural that you should come over to transmit and receive a little attention. But that doesn't justify making stuff up. "But if you have dismissed completely the possibility of salting..." I haven't. You just never dismiss any possibilities ever, with any stock, inside or outside of the resource game. But I have pretty much dismissed any probability of you coming up with anything to back your 'wsp is a scam' call, after two weeks of the stock holding up nice and you failing to produce any evidence whatever it does seem likely to me that you just made it up. Out of whole cloth. From scratch. Not that I should give a damn really. It's just that you were my favourite brilliant nutcase, and it's hard to lose an icon. So how about you kiss a little ass on the 'wsp salts' question, and we move on? Alternatively, you could back it up, but if you coulda, you woulda already. So give it up and let's get real. Good to see a thinker naysaying, look what you brought out of bill. And who knows, maybe that really was Turner and MacDonald on the grassy knoll in '63, hard to say, this Polaroid is all fuzzy and beer-stained. ...... cheers
