First off, I want to thank every shareholder participating in the "Meet and Greets" and especially the extra step the shareholders that organized the meetings have taken.I also want to thank every shareholder thats part of this family. Its absolutely amazing to go from town to town and meet all you fellow investors. To see the passion,determination, loyalty,intellect and much more presented at the meets from fellow shareholders is simply amazing. I am seeing more and more of the raw strength of this company daily at these meets and am always impressed with the questions asked and answered, very professional from all aspects.

As we go from meet to meet, I actually feel the strength and can see the appreciation more and more in the eyes of Gil, Darcy and Ted. I sit back and observe while the presentation goes on, and witness the immense progress from meet to meet, as I also witness relationships grow. I see satisfaction in the shareholders as they come to know who Gil,Darcy and Ted really are in terms of fellow shareholders wanting what is best for all SLI shareholders. Their attributes are beaming forth and are proving more and more to me, just how capable they are of running our company.

Its good to see more and more financial support coming in and I am confident we will make our mark. I would love to see this mark made as quick as possible, we have much work to do when we get in and please dont wait until the meets to donate if you are thinking about donating, do it now. I am sure everyone wants to get this sharade over with so that we can move forward here and get a hole in that anomaly where Quantec says to drill. You all believe we have the gold, or you wouldn,t still be here. After Lori tried to pull that 100 million PP off, that should be all anyone needs to think that if we don,t get in, your investment is toast. You can clearly see her intentions, dilute you and gain control, then what, more of the same last couple years?

I believe the securities will be forced to eventually act, but we can,t wait for them. Spring is getting close and we have to get in there, analyse the situation and proceed with this company. We are in and entering another tough leg of a market where financing for any junior is gonna be a great challenge. But, it won,t be with us if we get in there, we have many shareholders to take up PP,s quite easily to carry this company forward, we dont need institutions, we didn,t need them in the past, and we definitely wont need them in the future. I would be doubtful of Lori raising money as per evidence of the recent attempt of raising funds for IGD, a reputation usually precedes one. We can,t fool around here, we have to get down to business, and to do that, we need the cash now. Think about this, don,t hum and haw, if you are gonna donate, do it now so we can get this show on the road. The meets will continue to proceed as the boys interact with as many shareholders as they can and I hope that some of the shareholders that have met these gentlemen for the first time can attest to their qualities and capabilities, to help ensure the others that haven,t met them yet. We are a family, a very strong one, and thats why we have got as far as we have today. Everyone of you should be so proud that you are part of this now and will be in the future.

Don,t pay attention to the Stock House bashers nor the antics of Primed, you must be able to see clearly now their agenda. Remain focused and take this to the end, ignoring the noise created by fear mongers. Keep sending letters as new news comes out and if you haven,t, send letters mentioning the ridiculous 91% vote we won that doesn,t count. Get this new info to all levels of government, as you can see by a post I made earlier about Flaherty,s reply, the people you voted in this government do have a responsibility to deal with our situation, whether they like it or not, or try to pass the buck. Don,t take no for answers when we know we are right, we don,t need anyone to tell us that the law says a 91% vote doesn,t count. If we have to prove that, lets prove it, and when finished, go after the ones that caused us this considerable expense of proving something that every Canadian always thought was the law, the Government seeminly has deep pockets, to not consider the repercussions of our circumstance. Stand up people, straight and together, like we always have, and fight this blatant injustice.

I don,t care if its only $20 you can send, it all adds up and every bit helps. If you know of any investors that voted green and doesn,t read the boards, contact them and tell them we need their help, or any shareholder for that matter, this is their investment and we have an excellent chance of still making this an investment of a life time. We have the right properties, we have the right shareholders, we just need the right amount of money.

All in My opinion.

thank you
