Hi Richard,

Well I see not much has changed (other then a couple of class action suits) in the permit front with Crystallex. You must admit now, other then Venezuelan bureaucracy, that there are other agendas at play and that Mr Chavez has other plans in mind for the deposit at Las Cristinas? While I want to be optimistic about the prospects that Crystallex will be successful in securing a permit to mine Las Cristinas I believe it would have occurred by now. If I am wrong please tell me or agree with me that we are in trouble and headed toward a long legal battle to get some of our investment back from Mr. Chavez?

Thanks
