Speaking of Lvargas, I was his best friend when he showed up here and went to extra efforts to help him understand exploration mining (on and off-line)  That was until his whining became almost intolerable.  Still, I put up with it until finding that he put his retirement savings into LBSR and had no experience in investing what-so-ever.  That's when I began a series of private messages to him, urging him to get into mutual funds, or to at least sit down with an investment advisor.  That went on for years.  He ignored my pleadings, so, yes, I became increasingly intolerable of his postings and behaved cruelly toward him, to the point that he stopped posting.

I regret behaving as I did because it goes against my nature.  He needed HELP, not abuse.  Had he left this company when I first urged him to do he would be far better off.  I was compelled to do what I did from a sense of responsibility, as others here should have done also - and maybe some did in private messages.  

I do hope he is healthy and doing well.
