Henry, compromise may bring short term peace, but it almost always brings mediocrity. I also feel that this peace will be short lived, last only until the coffers are recharged, shareholders diluted, and continued metal recovery failures. Then the war begins anew, of course at lower share prices.

Henry: Fred is gone and no longer able to defend his position. Sometimes even reasonable people with the best of intentions can draw the wrong conclusion. I think this was the case with Fred. He personally believed in J/L and thought it was the best thing for the shareholders. I don't believe he had a financial interest in J/L except to the extent that if successful, share prices would be increased and he owned a lot of shares. I also know that in general, anything JJ promoted, Fred was against. They didn't ever really see eye to eye on much. I don't think Fred much cared for Ledoux (which in hindsight doesn't look like such a bad call). I can't speak to Fr. Gregory's motivations. I doubt they are "evil." After all, he is probably not qualified to run a junior mining co. as neither you or I would be. He may be misguided, he may be misinformed. He's probably never waged a proxy fight before. There's always AT LEAST two sides to every story (depending on how many lawyers are involved <g>). Perhaps it is best to have both viewpoints on the Board. Who can say for certain at the present? Never a dull moment with this company. JLA

And what lies are these Mr. Nonsense? You know very well that people on here were vilifying Fred Arkoosh for allegedly refusing to compromise at the AGM.

You are an odd character indeed. I most assuredly believe the Johnson method may be viable. However, I have expressed my dissatisfaction with the prior arrangement with J/L, probably before you. While you may have a high opinion of yourself and expect everyone else to, I'd like to know where you come up with the conclusion that Fred Arkoosh "conceived [the] proposal to hand of a major portion of the company over to J/L without any verification of their process." Wasn't it you who claimed to never have any time to talk to him while he was alive (although you certainly have enough free time to be on this thread just about everyday). Obviously, you are someone who has had an extreme dislike of Fred Arkoosh and it has driven you to spread lies about his role in the company.

Fortunately, characters like yourself are unlikely to have any effect on the current move at reconciliation. I continue to believe FL is rich with PMs and hope the reconciled group can finally move forward in proving and developing the property.
