Doug, You, a man of understanding perhaps become too focused on recouping former losses to the detriment of future gain. First and foremost, this area of investment is for the very speculative money to say the least. Potentially great gain, but also potentially great loss. I will go no further than that. If you like the reversal theory that Charles expounds, then pick the best of the best in the area for your major investment and I would advise a mixed basket of areas. The market today revealed itself. There was a flight away from high multiple high flyers to very basic industries. While this may prove to be a prelude, I think it a "heads up" for the astute investor. What we are likely to see is a continuing divergence between the DOW and the broader market here. DOW leads until it fails. Then it leads in another direction! This is along tall market and I expect great volatility here with some predictability. A "day traders paradise" is what we have here according to me! Position traders better grab their shorts and expect an exciting ride! Oil and gold up today, down on thursday-- Lots of whip and saw for the slow, Jack!!

Doug, got a great company. lot's of potential. big possibilities. been talked about for years. Just one simple thing. they don't answer the following questions. no it is NOT gpgi. The name of the Company is called......___________. I won't tell you just yet. First read the questions below and then if you are still interested investing your hard earned money in this great company that WON'T answer these simple questions then I will tell you the name of it. And you can reap the rewards of "if, maybe, improve before, tweak technic, if, coulda's, you get it............. Thor I bet for all of us that have their own businesses (public or private), we could answer these questions. Dennis: 1) What does Mike mean <the company believes this may be the right time to tell the market of the company's potential> or some such line? 2) the market will only believe funds received. Mike's latest post didn't make any commitments to future dates of actual milestone events or even the date of the next release. 3) To get that fresh blood requires more than a PR Newswire release every 2 or 3 weeks. 4) You should talk to Dick and announce your PR strategy for the coming months -- 5) current investors need to know you'll be doing something significant to introduce new people to the company. 6) Please post or release a statement on this ASAP. 7) is it time for a real CFO? 8) One who by his very reputation will bring attention to the company? 9) Or is it time to announce specific steps and by when the company intends to handle the OTC BB crackdown? 10) Or file this year's annual financials? Or let a major take a minority stake, if only again to make GPGI more legitimate? 11) Any of these non-mining issues could give confidence to the market, and there's no reason why you guys need to be stingy with the releases. 12) You guys have got enough going on now, at HQ as well as in the desert, to make regular announcements about how you intend to legitimize this company legally, financially, and via a high stock price. 13) Tell us about management's direction and intent -- tell us about how you are bringing in new blood. 14) Make us feel like this company is healthy and not about to go to an all-time low.
