Though I am no expert on this aspect of the investment world; Who can find and post the Oct. end of month Short, Warent, and Option positions for NOT? Given that it is now a new month, and October the terrible is over, what is the usual adjustments big investment firms get into in prep for the end of year stuff? Same thing for the Manipulator bunch on the junior resource sector/ Venture exchange...? As for the small broker houses out of Vancouver - Mant shell companies sit around there! What if some of them decided to pull their stranded cash out of direct investment in NOT in hopes (likely only hopes) of flying to TO with proposals on JV's now that the standard has been set via the WSR JV? Or to make it available to more realistic JV partners, more in touch with RN? On this last point, now that the standard has been set, and once signed off on with V Exchange approval, I expect there will be several more to follow very quickly. The template is in place now and RN will likely (in my opinion only) refer to it as being cast in stone for other prospective JV partners to conform with. This JV arrangement will expedite the winter exploration/drilling situation for any kuckey enough to land an agreement for their respective company. Old Joe
