Great post as usual Misfit. Your opinions and DD on NOT are topnotch as usual,,, Unmatched in quality IMO.

That said, I would like to point out something that has come to my attention. At the time of my writing this response to your post, I noticed that you received 29 votes on this post with a score of 27 points. This would equate to 27 green hands and 2 red hands.

There is an obvious pattern here. I have noticed many of the very negative posts tend to have 2 green hands on a regular basis. This would indicate that we have at least 2 Spammers/bashers among us. Don't get me wrong,,,I'm not worried about these guys or my investment. I just wanted to point this out to everyone. There is no way Misfits post deserved a red hand,,,,maybe no vote,,,but not a red hand. So just keep this in mind.

Furthermore,,,, I agree with everyone who has posted that we are witnessing a massive fight among the MM's with NOT. We will see more of this going forward,,,shorting, bashing,,,manipulation. If someone has trouble with this,,they should maybe take some money off the table.

Personally,,,I agree with Snezzer,,,,the risk is worth the possible pay-off here. This is a great company with 13 projects. As I see it, NOT has the 8 P's that Doug Casey says are needed for picking a winner. Management is one of those P's .

RN and company are as good as it gets. I have no reason to question their performance to date. So far this management has outperformed every other holding of mine. And I can tell you,,,I am following way too many stocks right now. At one point I had over 30 stocks in my portfolio. I have been trimming that down, and putting the cash into NOT. I feel great that I have tripled my # of shares of NOT. Also I have more time to manage my porfolio,,,,30 companies are just WAY TOO MANY,,, That was insane!

But the point I want to make clear is that this company has done everything perfectly in my opinion. None of my other holdings can hold a candle to Noront. So if they have done this good,,,,with this kind of a return on my initial investment,,,,Why would I question management as to their release of a map. Is this really part of the 8 P's. Should I base my investment in any company over the release of a map?

Should anyone really find fault in a company that returned over 1000% and has had 10 news releases in 1 month because they have not released a map of the drill holes?

Is that really a factor in which one should base their investments?

Keep your eye on the ball,,,beware of insignificant distractions.
