CJR...one of my nightmare scernarios has Hugo strangling KRY by delaying permit until his Russian friends can buy it for dirt. This is more than economics. It is power and international alliances versus the U.S. "devil" against a backdrop of, to quote Hugo (as well as Jim Sinclair coincidentally enough), "the imminent collapse of the dollar". Of course....given the inverse relationship between the dollar and gold and the time frame referenced by Hugo (3 months till the U.S. economic collapse).....this would be a win-win situation for Hugo and his communist anti-imperialist friends. At that point...who gives a rat's ass about legally binding "operating contracts" or bad PR for private investment.

On the other hand...we may have the permit within 3 months once that broad with the fat ass gets the cream cheese bagel out of her mouth
