Hello to Misfit and all of the excellent regular posters here. It has been a while for me, lots of family activity and a move to a new home, thanks in part to our fantastic little junior that grew. I know that Richard just loves to hear that.

I decided a while ago that the best course of action would be to stand back, stop taking the temperature every minute and just let Richard do what he does best, deliver real value to his shareholders. I decided early on that I would be in for the long haul. Yes I sold more that half of my position, and would have with any stock given the same outcome.

To be sure, some of you will probably remember me best as one of the original defenders of Noront when it was quietly and thinly trading in the .19 cent range. A lot has changed since then, but I can tell you the one thing that hasn't changed is the fact that I have never lost a nickel with Noront. My position, while still sizeable at least for me is growing again and will continue to grow on any dips from here. In my opinion this is one of the best opportunities that the market will present us in 2008. There are so many clearcut clues for the astute.

Finally, Misfit if you have the time inbox me as I believe you may know who it is that I owe a bottle of champagne to.

Best of luck to all longs
