I also like to hear the opinions of others excluding the useless comments of a few on the other board. Owning this stock has been gut-wrenching and it is good to commissserate and read posts, inlcuding VP who obvioulsy is knowledgeable. I think one thing I did with LBSR that I hope turns out to be positive. On the tour and in communcations, I allowed JB's expertise and optimism influence me. Like many driven, postiive people, I think JB expected this to happen much faster. I remember feeling like, two years ago, i would come back from being off the board for a while and thinking a deal was going to be signed. How could it not with the ore body looking like it was larger and larger and more and more groups being interested. That contagious optimism has led me to buy shares as the price went down from .04 to 0035 and now I am very frustrated. In January I asked about more shares being released and the reply from the company said "if". Looking back, it looks like it was a foregone conclusion that more dilution would take place, but the company was, again, overly optimistic. I blame only myself for my investment decisions, but, naturally, I am hoping JB's long-time optimism comes to fruition soon. Yesterday online, there was a news story about the world's finace ministers predicting a dire future in the world economy. There is an element of urgency to LBSR's locking someone in.
