Too much emotion yesterday to respond to posts here so wanted to let things settle down. Larry Hoover has been a good friend for many years, he is brilliant and I respect him for that. However, I disagree with him on a few topics regarding ZEN but will leave it at that.

Yesterday, I took on Bob on SH, a serial basher of ZEN and in doing so, ended up involving Larry. That was not my intention and I must live with the consequences of those posts. Hopefully, time will improve things.

I choose to hold both ZEN and CCB because I see huge potential in both. ZEN is my sure thing, although slower to payoff and CCB is my proxy spec play that once ZEN establishes the value per ton for this high end graphite, will do extremely well if their geophysics live up to their potential. It is much more speculative so not for everyone and I respect that and is why I have more dollars invested in ZEN then in CCB. I hope this clarifies where I am coming from.

GH, thanks for all your great work lately on this forum, very appreciated. I copied part of your post on the interview of AE to prove once again that Bob does not know what he is talking about.

Things seem bleak right now with both plays hanging around their lows and the summer doldrums but taking our eyes off the prize will be costly here IMO. A few more months and both plays should be multibaggers from these prices.

Good luck everyone!
