I don't want to stir the pot here, but I do believe that Rusuro is very much ON topic for the KRY faithful. IMO, if not for the pseudo-Russian involvement in Venezuelan mining with the Hecla deal, we'd probably have our permit by now and Gold Reserve may not have had their's recinded. Problems for Agapov/Rusuro (if they exist) may affect their position in Venezuela thereby affecting our position. I don't believe they belong on the off topic board.
