I should qualify something, by inside information, last post,
I mean funny stories with respect to the main players.

So there we were Me, Dave and Jim heading out to meet the
Hillbilly's in Nelson B.C. This property was going to be the
major transaction for RIO and all the claims were in a complete
and total mess. My job was to be the man of reason and calm
and try and get the Hillybilly's to like me because they hated
the Calgary people so much. It did not help when Dave got up
halfway through one of the meetings and declared he was an
exploitationist. In the end the Nelson property did not cut it
because of past bitter feelings and mistrust. There was a story
told me that one of the Hillbilly's had been used as a front for
offshore money from a previous partner of the JV to the tune of
over $1,000,000.00

Interesting prospectors, they really had something and optioned
the ground to G. Robson in Vancouver, I think they will find something.

My next installment is "Dave parties down in New York" in the
financial district.

over and out - aj
