Doug, You do make a good point. I have some reservations about this trip too. I have no problem with Steve and Bill going down, but TT has still not OK'd the trip yet and there may be reason. I wish the name calling of TT would stop. If people have serious doubts about the company then just sell the stock. There is clearly some bad blood between Sun River and GE. I wish Sun River success but wonder if they will have a bias of subtlely downplaying GE.

<The CIMA FUND trip appears to be a biased journey>

Well Doug phone Terry Turner and put alternatives to him for the week of October 12, he had his chance to host the trip and frankly anyone of his choosing in the contributors could have gone.

GE beginning to look very Stupid.

Douglas - I appreciate your opinion on this matter but I feel you are not looking at the big picture.

This trip to Bolivia will be good for ALL junior mining companies in the region. It will bring attention to Bolivian mining in general.

You say that, "The Co-ops are anti GE???" Gee, I wonder why???

So, the trip will be biased because the locals don't like GE. Listen to yourself, how many clues do you need that GE cannot get it right? I am not going to list all the items they have not completed, we all know them by heart.

They made their bed Douglas, the whole point of the trip was to go down and find out the truth of GE and their situation, take pictures and proceed with our new found knowledge.

GE had every opportunity to participate, repeatedly. GE chose not to respond to request for a trip date repeatedly. They left us hanging indefinitely. So be it.

They must live and die by their decisions just like you and I do.

I get the impression from GE that the shareholders do not count...
Now I get the impression from you, that GE has made sure the locals think that they don't count either.

DO WE SEE A PATTERN HERE?

I for one value the locals knowledge and opinions. I am anxious to read of their take on the GE situation.

I am going to give GE one more chance to join in on the Bolivian Expedition. Not much, just a tour of the concession. I do not expect them to accept. They do not have to spend a dime on us.

Maybe Guy can talk some sense into TT, RN or MEr. They are missing out on a great opportunity to convince shareholders of the soundness of their investment decision. Not to mention the great PR this may create, (which may or may not be of great value).

Douglas, if someone does not get invited to a dance by the one they want, should they turn down all other offers for an escort?? What is the point of missing out on the dance just because one person does not think enough of you to ask you to it?

And Douglas, it is human nature and polite to dance with the one who brung ya.

This is a GE DD trip with some SUNR thrown in. I like the idea of DDing two companies for the price of one.

Regards, Colleen

Doug

I am alittle baffled here.

1) GE has been approached several times to do this trip, they have chose to ingnore/reject that for one reason or another.

2) You said:

< Many of co-ops they will meet will be anti- GE. They will not receive a fair representation of the truth >

I am assuming that you are talking about the COOPS that GE is working with. If they are anti-GE, I would guess that is the truth, maybe not the truth that you want to hear, but never the less the truth. Sorry that you would think that is bias, I never thought the truth would be bias.

I guess what I need help from you is if GE is not going to help us and you dont think that we should talk to the COOPS then what should we do when trying to complete DD on GE? Sounds like to me that the trip would need to be bias toward GE to get what you want to hear. How is this, Didnt talk to GE, Didnt talk to the Coops, BUT everything is fine.

Obviously with your comment <Good Luck deciphering the truth> you are already putting doubt in peoples minds that we are not going to tell the truth and nothing but the truth. I for one take that personnelly.
I guess I would have hoped that you would let the trip go one as smooth as possible without any politics creeping in, but I was wrong.

Regards
SteveWW
