WINSPEAR REALITY EXERCISE

Is anyone on this thread interested in having a little perverse fun by trying to list everything that might go wrong on the WSP story and the likelihood of each imagined scenario? Since the stock is doing so well, I thought it might be a good idea to look at any possible problems ahead. Here are some of the things I could think of:

1. The drill results from all the delineation holes come back all over the map, micro-macro count wise, or are just plain lousy. What are the odds of this happening?

2. The bulk sample proves Bob Bishop right that the 3 multi-carat diamonds in the 200 tonne sample were flukes and not representative of the kimberlite.

3. Any mining plan can only extract the 1000 tonnes per day from the deposit as in the MRDI scoping study, i.e. it can't be increased to 5000 tonnes per day as suggested by teevee or at least numbers higher than the 1000 tonnes per day in the MRDI study.

Those are about the only things I can think of (any one of which is quite enough to screw the stock price up if any is true, though)

Come on, y'all. What say you to these possible impediments?
