I have been in this a long time and it agree that there have been really no good faith efforts made to back to this company.  What cracks me is if they issue the permit today, it is not like the mining will start right away.  But buy issuing the permit, the equipment could start getting shipped out Texas.  Our stock would go up and a chain reaction of good things would happen.  The only thing that won't happen for a long time is actually mining the gold.  Also, Hugo always can change something down the road if he doesn't like the way something is getting done.  So what is the big deal about holding up the permit.  I think if you guys talk to RM, this is good area to ask about, because there is a time factor after the permit until any digging would happen.  Just my Friday rant and rave, dogonnu
