Good morning Al.

I am not really concerned about the SP per se but rather that I believe that the advancing of the project has to come from another direction entirely and not the exploring or the drilling. In this day and age SRU could make a discovery of 12 lbs of platinum per square foot [slight exaggeration noted- lol] and the SP would go down another two cents. LOL again.

We have all heard the expression, "power to the people". Al, Starfield has the power potential in the ground AND in a process that can produce it economically and in an enviornmentally friendly way. In a good and bad economy power is essential. Norman Betts who Chairs Starfield's BOD, is a power guy. He sits on the board of three public and three private power companies. Starfield has the royalty rights and a leasing plan for this phase of their operation. Why not switch gears and put the millions into further developing this process BEFORE someone else comes along and beats them to the punch. You can't really sucessfully patent these types of processes. They can be 'altered' so to speak and you would wind up in a 15 year costly no win civil suit. [Try sucessfully suing the Chinese who are quite excellent at duplicating something] So, if that is true then the advantage that Starfield has is to beat everyone to the punch and be the first to make this work on a large scale basis. We just might get a two or three year jump on others because those companies are not to sure it will work and will wait to see if SRU fails in this power part of their multi facited venture. My question to the company is this. Do you really believe in this process or don't you? If you do, then why is it being placed on the back burner with respect to the spending of funds to further develop it. Cash is king and they need to convince the someone's of the world that they really do have something great that others do not.

Best regards Al,

Jerry francis
