but where is the adult population,sitting at home in the dark shaking?

If they are a business owners...the answer to that question is "yes...absolutely!". Those that have something...that produce something have the risk of having it taken away if they open their mouths.

You know what bothers me? The fact that we could all just be suckers for management. All of us concerned with "Fung's Pride". We are weeks away from bankruptcy according to the latest information we have from management. To my calculus...the stay of execution (spelled...'management receiving handsome salaries until the ultimate end') afforded by the sale of our mining equipment is tantamount to bankruptcy. All on this board must realize where we stand now. It is very simple.

A. Either management is telling us the truth and we will receive good news on or before the March 31st quarterly earnings release.

OR

B. We get bad news (spelled 'no news' for those wearing tardo helmets) at the March 31st quarterly earnings release.

In terms of "Pride"...I can tell you from personal experience....loss of your personal wealth does nothing to increase your sense of pride. Hugo I can excuse. I can't excuse management if they are lying to us....leading us on to the final slaughter so they can collect their shareholder financed salaries while they find alternative employment in China related speculative precious metals plays. No. I don't like being anybody's bitch. Do you?
