To The Board, re-read my (munisign) post of may 22, 2012 7:38PM. Specifically the last 7 sentences. I still feel there are some unseen unknown forces on or behind the AUMN BOD to "TAKE" this company, i.e. steal it at $5 a share. To do that you would have to make the stock perform so patheticaly that owners would be happy to be put out of their misery at the $5 price. Is it Right, Is it fair, Is it legal based on what we were taught about the rule of law, Hell, Hell, and Hell No! But it is what is going on. AUMN has a very big slug of silver with slightly above average grades that someone will be able to extract a very large amount of silver for a very long time, which is exactly why the Goldman Sucks Man on the Pan American board, and why someone of similar ilk would need and want to steal it, for purposes of having a large on going stream of silver to use for shorting-delivery colateral purp[oses. Anyonre that cannot comprehend this ,just can't believe how devious, desperate and powerful this war against Gold and Silver is. It is why Jim Sinclair is right about the royalty companies RGLD, FNV.TO which are financial interest rate Gold leveraged money machines, and he is right about mucks and trucks. Both his company and Rob Mcwewen's company are brilliantly run in a way that the cartel cannot effect them as easily as most others. "The Boyz" plan is to systematically exterminate our capital by suppressing-shorting until they get enough physical and stolen/merged/taken over real in the ground G & S corporate Entities, and then go long both physical and PM Stocks, just as Sinclair says. The problem is they have free money to wait us out, it is why more and more of us are converting our gold stock ownership to paid for physical Gold and Silver. I sincerely hope I am wrong, but their are just too many excuses, and I believe, intentionally very few, sketchy and poor news from the company. GLTA
