Anyone want to take a stab at why this manipulation? Ok, I will. It's for the PP, obviously. Why else would someone sell shares into a bid? And not just a few hundred either. Like, a couple of hundred thousand? It's clearly someone wants to buy into the next Private Placement at a lower price than you or I would like to see one at. Just try to tell me why else would someone try so hard to, like you say, keep the lid on this stock and not let it get away, even to the mid 50's or even starting into the 60 cent level? Ok, so who? James West maybe? He was heard to have said that he wants to give his options back and buy into the next private placement. So, do you think he would like to buy his Placement shares at 50ish cents or somewhere north of $1? That's right, Stan. Around 50 cents is the correct answer.

So, when is our next PP, that is the final question. Can this team wait until after Christmas to raise more cash, or are they going to be cautious and do one before the cupboards get too bare? I personally will be amazed to see them wait until after Christmas. The timing is excellent to accelerate this program very soon, especially while gold is climbing. If you want the best bang for your shares, you may want to get them sold to a major in the next 1 to 1 1/2 years to be on the safe side. Any longer than that and you are taking a much larger risk, in my opinion. So, dilute by 20 million or dilute by 40 million. That is the puzzle set before our management. I am sure that they mean the best for the shareholders, as is evident by the amount of shares that they own themselves. I just hope that they get it right so the rest of us can benefit to the max too...

So, what to do. I know, I think I will wait and see how many shares get bought out in the PP and then the stock should be given free reign to go as high as those who are buying into that PP want it to go. That sounds like a good time to sell for me.
