The Chief was the first to promote this promotion idea some time back. He tried everything he could to move AE but failed. You people will fail too. AE is his own man and will do what he has too. I am sure the BOD and advisors such as Dr. Charhar support the policy AE is implementing. I honestly do not think he has much choice with the agreements they sign, NDA's etc. I'd like to know what is going on within the inner circle as much as anyone.

I just hope none of you take the path The Chief took and sell all your shares. The PEA will come but not until it is ready. Obiously, not even AE knows that. I never took any expectations of time lines that AE or anybody else talked about as promises. Expectations, yes, but all too often expected timelines have not been met. That applies to many different mining stocks I have held over the years.

I think almost all of us were surprised with this latest drop with the share price. Maybe a little bit scared too. I couldn't bring myself to make a move to buy a few more. My head said yes, but my heart refused to let me pull the trigger. Maybe it is the other way around, but anyone of you who did, it took courage and conviction.

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and let's hope 2015 is the year that Zenyatta makes her move and crosses the finish line...........first.
