If we carry out a successful operation why doesn't the price go up?

Its because of what their definition of successful is. Has the company ever admitted that it has been unsuccessful at anything? I'm not saying they haven't, but I can't recall any.

I think the best thing we could do to clarify the picture is to only communicate with the company via email and post responses to the board. It is easy to spin things in an overly positive way on the phone but when you have to put it in writing you have to be more careful.

I recall a comment Elmer made in one of his email responses to a poster's questions that he would prefer a phone call instead of email. To me that was telling.

I have called CUU 3 times in the last 14 months (got Elmer twice) and the impression I was left with after each call is everything is great, things are going better than expected, expect great things ahead. Very positive, he can really talk up the project well and has great reasoning why things are going to be peachy - but obviously share price has not followed his optimism.

His email responses are much more gounded and I think should hold a lot more weight with us than phone calls or 'face to face' discussions like Grant has had.

Just my observations, your mileage may vary...
