Don I do want to express a little caution here, you say;

"I doubt that we will be so impatient next time there is a delay. We will know that management handles bad news appropriately and when they get a handle on it they tell us. I have a feeling we will have a stronger board. We all held up well under the circumstances. Even the negs didn't do us much harm.......Don"

We, the faithfully, long will, hopefully, be patient, but we both know those subtle basher's among us will continue to plant the seeds of doubt to take advantage of any situation. And when I mean any situation I mean even the good results. For example I can see/read it now, the subtle basher saying; these 7% nickel etc etc, are very promising, if the lab results are accurate. Even if these results are accurate can NOT prove up a mine able tonnage between E1 and E2 we haven't seen those numbers yet.

I am not a pessimist as to where NOT's share price is heading. I am a realist in human nature and ability of some who are willing to spread lies and deceit for there own personal gains.

So for all you sincere and Honorable NOTITE's

Keep the Faith
