I realize most are sick and tired of the "naked shorting" diversions and so on. However there are many out there who are intent on rectifying the situation and there are also many who are just trying to get some direction to find qualified information on the subject. I was asked on the MIDAS letter last night if I could help direct someone to information sources. I realize that most posters here are extremely sophisitcated and more than understand what is occurring. For those, please excuse this. For others who may be new or just more curious, here is what I have on the subject that may help. I'm sure it can be improved upon:

"One of the sources of reference on illegal naked shorting is Jim Sinclair’s website, Jim Sinclair’s Mineset at http://www.jsmineset.com/ . This is the most complete information site I know of and has a complete library archive for research. Most recently, on June 17th, Jim has initiated an action plan for the Junior PM’s to fight back by establishing a Chamber of Mines: “My request is simple: Contact the management of every junior precious metals producer, exploration and developer, asking them to contact Editor Dan at information@jsmineset.com so that the Chamber can take form.”

A complete version can be found at his website.
