I must be missing something or I'm just blind to the facts. First Nuinsco{have nothing against the stock and wish the shareholders all the luck in the world--was once one myself}, comes out with a great drill hole{copper and nickel} and the stock moves up to over $2.00. But lets face it you can produce a ton of nickel and not have the value that a palmful of diamonds can have. Snap will produce high end high value diamonds. This all leads me to the point I want to make-- John Kaiser continues to talk about the speculative bubble when refering to Winspear and yet other stocks with far less work on their properties are now almost at the same price levels. What speculative bubble-- this same man was recommending Winspear 2 years ago at over $3 dollar! At that point in time there had been little drilling no bulk sample no Cf results yet he was telling his subscribers to buy. Now 2 years later after large diamonds are found, drilling has confirmed a continuous sheet etc. etc. etc. he keeps talking about this bubble. Well John ,I for one wish you would stick that "speculative bubble" theory where the sun don't shine. Regards

Who the heck was it on TV that used to say "There you go!" If you were quoting Buffet from his joint appearance with Gates, which I thought was priceless You will have noted that he also said that he was having no part in the Internet stock feeding frenzy that is a characteristic of the US market just now. I also recall him saying on an earlier program , in response to a question about his biggest mistake in his career------ That it was an early sell trying to market time Disney stock. He took an early profit for peanuts (involving I balieve 10% of Disney) which he admitted would have made him Billions if he'd just sat on it. That's what I meant the other day when I said some people gain experience while others just accumulate prejudices. It's no fun making mistakes if you don't learn something. I've made all those mistakes, some of them more than once. LOL
