Cividale, I'm a supporter of RF because I believe he is the best man for the job right now.

If you were to evaluate his performance to date I would agree he has been a failure based on getting the permit and starting the mine. Responsibility always goes to the top dog and he hasn't gotten the job done.

If you look deeper than black and white then it doesn't matter who the CEO is or was, we would have been in the same or worse situation as we are currently. Many people admired GRZ because Doug took a more aggressive approach with VZ. What has that got them if their goal was to mine LB? They are currently in a better financial situation than we are but don't have enough money to pay their debt before any arbitration award comes their way.

You might think it is demeaning for RF to kiss A$$ to get a deal with the Chinese to move LC forward but I'm glad he is doing it. He could put on a rubber glove and visit Hugo personally for all I care as long as it produces results.

How do you judge RF for not delivering and mock him for having to kiss A$$ to deliver?

RF may be a lot of thing and not be what you want in a CEO but I'm glad he's there because I believe he will do what ever needs to be done to get us the best deal possible.
