Marcos - Whatever. The only thing I'm guilty of is being pissed off about people who say they like to invest in countries that have no environmental laws or Indians to worry about. A true man for the new millenium!

I'm backing out now as I can't take this any longer. I came in with good intentions and was just trying to stop what I think is the biggest problem with investing in these types of stocks, hype. We've all seen it countless times. The people at the co. tell you everything is great, the newsletter guys say the same thing and everyone who owns it is talking pie in the sky. The brokers are in on it too because it's in their best interest to have actively trading clients. The only problem is that 1 out of every 10,000 properties becomes a mine. The list is endless. Certain people are capable enough but many others aren't and they bite hook, line and sinker for this kind of hype and I think it's our duty to protect these people. I believe that everyone should have a healthy dose of skepticism and should question everything that they are told by people who are involved. I'm really not a bad guy, I just kind of got sucked into this stupid scrapping vortex before I knew what I was doing. I wish you all well, even my favorite opponents, teevee, Gord and Marcos. After all if it is the greatest diamond mine of all time I'll be a happy man. A special thanks to maintenance and Wayne who seem to have understood my motives. I'll stick to my other threads now. Good luck.
