Anyways, I was just wondering why you get the feeling they want Teck to walk?
I'm starting to wonder if we are beginning to see the spin on this. It's not that they want Teck to walk, but they think Teck might walk and so they're starting to talk up what happens next. That's where the big drilling plans for Schaft are coming from this summer. I had been told in the past that if Teck walks they will go in and do a major drilling...well suddenly we're talking big drills. It just doesn't make sense any other way after the dismal drilling season last year.
This is part of the reason and unfortunately I will have to lay this squarely on management for hiring him in the first place.
You know, Jason has been with this stock longer than Elmer. He was here with Salazar. In fact, he introduced Ernesto to Elmer. He also brought other early funding to the project. I don't think he's part of this because of his PR skills, but because of his connections. Given that we're still riding on EE's commitment, I give him a lot of slack.
