"...it's hard to argue for their excellent transparancy and communication ideals."

Dear Jay:

Thanks for your good post as always. I just want to respectfully challenge you a little bit on the above quotation. I have never invested in a company who has taken as much time to speak with the individual retail investor as Elmer and Mike. We all know that they take time out of their day to pick up the phone and talk with us personally. They are top notch and classy communicators in this regard. Sure, we don't know what is going on behind the scenes but this is to be excepted. In terms of transparency, I recall the company making the decision to do extra drilling to add value to the company. They did this and delivered in spades. Moreover, how many of us were biting our nails as to whether silver was to be included in the RE. We will know all too soon what a coup that was in terms of supporting economics of the BFS.

We all know companies who don't pick up the phone and when you are troubled merely shuffle you off to a investor relations consultant. Yes, I will follow Elmer and his excellent team. Holding tight til the big day... Thanks again, SF
