Hey GW, I was at their booth yesterday and spoke to Sasha for a while. He's young but sharp as a tack. I liked what I heard. But more than that, you could sense the confidence they have in this deposit.

We also got a bit of a history of Sasha, how he got into this biz and his meeting up with Frank, etc. I can't remember all the details, so I won't post that part for fear of getting it wrong. But suffice to say that Frank was working in a restaurant in the midst of a busy financial/mining district, so he heard about this biz all the time. He listened, he learned and eventually got a chance to become part of something with Frank, whom I guess, took him under his wing. Not sure if I got all that right, so I'll stop there.

But Sasha was very personable with us, as was Frank (although I didn't speak with him). Sahsa gave me his card and said to call him anytime to discuss GNH.

We jokingly said they should put the Hoov on the BoD. I got the impression that this wasn't so far fetched. But any additions to the board would have to be in pairs, to keep the quorum intact.

Okay, that's about it. I'm sure we'll here more after tonight's reception.
