Yep, it's all about the financing.

What stokes me about this play is that it is all about throwing everything at development, go all the way, take the big leap, jump, go for it, don't back off and hesitate because of "risk", raise and spend the $200 million, even if it takes putting your golf clubs in hock. When we back off, and think about the risk, try to have it both ways, hedging for minimal risk and preserving capital, diversifying, all of that doubt stuff, that rational planning stuff, we raise the chance of failure for ourselves.

If you throw everything at this project, it will pay off handsomely, if you don't, it will likely fail. When DW moved out and was replaced by B&S, all of a sudden the resources became available to take the big leap. All DW could do was keep on drilling, spending the small bucks as they became available through piddly little financing deals, and hoping that someday somehow a wonderful thing would happen and the big $200 million of financing would be available to actually build a mine. This was a certain failure. All of a sudden, when B&S took over, with their financing background and connections, with their understanding of markets and development of new companies, and their toughness in the face of difficulties, the possibility of actually building the mine became real, but what it takes is letting go and going over the edge, taking the big step. B&S are showing signs of throwing everything they have at this project to make a go of it, and amazingly enough they want us shareholders to participate in their success. They have the vision and they see the prize, clearly, obviously. They are spending a lot of money to make a lot of money. And they want us along with them, in the back seat of their car. What is the problem with that? Can't see it myself. Ike
