pecorina,

I had been willing to give the BOD the benefit of the doubt that what they had done with this offer from Kinross was maybe something they were doing to protect us from a hostile bid by a major....

I didn't think Patrick and the BOD could be that uncaring to their loyal shareholders...and I'm still unsure what is really happening with this takeout bid....

But I am now satisfied that maybe now the truth will finally come out...at least if the OSC is better than the SEC!

I am glad that they are going to do a full review of all the transactions of insider sales and company meeting minutes...

I wasn't into commodities when BRE-X happened, but after that unholy mess, if this situation brings about better changes to the stock markets it will sure be a blessing to us retail investors...

Best Regards,

Long for Cash
