Hi, Ed-
I look at it a different way: the investing public generally knows diddly-squat about Noront, and it's only when the analysts start saying "boo" that any investing weight starts to jump. So it doesn't matter much what gets said on these boards, or when, except to the participants. Richard Nemis said that we'd have a mine back in 2007. I believed him then.
I take the recent coverage by the analysts/BNN as a sign that the players have loaded up and they are ready for the fuse on this rocket to be lit. It's going to take some time to lift off as there are 170million shares in the payload, so it's going to need a big push. Another doubling of the indicated resources should provide the lift nicely.
JMHO, DYODD, GLTA Noront longs!
