knows, you rang...it is at a 10 cents share price of Maxam toady, a rate of 1 for 3 shares help of IPM, so that would be 0.033 cent ( 3 cents )....but there is a twist. Exchange something worth nothing for something worth...everthiung...in the future! IMHO. Future, vales not now values. Same as here, same as ...any startup. Chucaup...t

1/4 reply, 1/4 babble, 1/4 bologna, 1/4 filler Zeev, the name of the game of this speculation is, what if. The what if the dirts contain precious metals seems to have been answered. Before it was answered, most likely Dale Runyon of Maxam was told by many to stop claiming dirt areas until you have proof precious metals are there. Now that precious metals are there, there are those that suggest to not claim any more dirt areas until an profitable extraction process is made. There are many persons out there that would like to start a new company thats in the gold or precious metals to-find activity. But most will hold back until it has been showned as doable. Something like a wait and see what happens to those few that strike out alone and take the big upfront risks. But sometimes if you wait, it could be too late to be part of it. If the what if of Maxam in the current focus of extraction becomes a yes, we got the workable extraction for all the dirt, then those that took the eariest and biggest risk get the biggest rewards of money. Richard has said the follow many times using different words: ... all these doubts and letdowns and broken promises and waiting are not enjoyable or wanted, but where else is there a place that the payoff can be as big as a penny gold mine stock increasing by a factor like ten... So Zeev, the very fact that someone like you with 2 feet solidly on the ground, and one hand holding firmly onto a safe place, with the other hand trying to catch a possible moving target that may be valuable, means to me that yes, yes it is possible to get a big win from something that at present holds little value, except as a maby, what if ...... each person has his or her own level of comfort for: what if to decide to or not do a what if is a yes for us all for those not, they are on the IBM type threads looking for a return, 5 to 15 percent best case looking for a lost, 5 to 15 percent worst case hell, we don't even notice those type of changes here we want the big win and willing to accept, but not without a fight on ipmcf, total lost those IBM buy type people how can they get excited on a 10% gain i can't but then, i can handle a 100% lost those IBM type cannot so we can handle stuff IBM types cannot its our gift, if we win its our curse, if we loose but we all take a trip IBM types never travel they travel the 99% safe road we do 50/50 we can, and mostly have to, do IBM to pay off future expected bills but we can move ahead not by 5 or 10 percent, but a biggie, if luckly Doug
