If anyone reads your post about "we need to try and convince Richard Nemis to accept Norilsk shares instead of cash for the company" or words to that effect - they will never believe your latest statement that you are now Italian not Russian, and that what you meant to say was that we should be willing to accept either shares in Norilsk or cash.  That is not what you said before.  You need to learn a little more from the KGB and not be so obvious in your intentions.
