are we sure Barron has not sold yet? He might have done

an "equity monetization' deal with one of the

financial houses. This could also explain the reported

large short sale position.

I can tell you, the ripple effects of the Aurelian case

are reaching the Continent; with the problems USB

are currently facing by the US politicos, the Swiss are

supersensitive towards potential financial misdeeds

and it will not take very much for them to "disinvite"

Dr Barron; Barron remains silent to date; he can

do himself and all non-Kinross shareholders a great favor

by tellung the public where he stands. - If he doesnt

circumstances may give him the worst deal out of this

after his odyssy of moving from Quito to Switzerland.

He might regret for not having opted for Panama.
