Darn too-tin, I like your umbrage and agree, the lack of response by Patrick and his managerial staff has been a bad wrap to investors.

Their lack of guidance to ARU shareholders left in total silence is so pejorative it is insulting.

Man, many on this ARU Board have spent decades in management and they are not neophytes to situations similar to to the Ecuadorian Mining blindside. They know full well that the way Patrick and Company has disappeared from shareholders is a travesty.

He might be a good person but it appears, sadly, he may not be the most most capable leader in such trying circumstances.

It would be nice to see him come out and prove us wrong but, has he the intestinal fortitude?
