Really DMC, I am not in substantive disagreement with you. I raised recently that one interpretation of what I view as apparent manipulation would be to keep the "base price" lower for any potential suitor that might be formulating an offer.

Others have stated in the past that "we" are an exploration company and not experienced mine operators. Even PORTEE with his follow the Richardson money does not necessarily say they will stay the full course. They did participate in the long ago high priced financing but any subsequent involvement could have been at much lower levels that could well see them "averaged down" to reachable profit levels.

All of us however are in the "wait and see" group and hopefully some type of direction will be established before too long.
