Hi D12, My appologies for being too abrupt in my analysis. However, my objective to a large extent was for you to clarify just where you really stand on this takeover issue. The overall tenor you stressed throughout your post was that this was "just business". That is principally what I was calling BS upon. This takeover attempt is nothing more then a greedy, opportunistic attempt to rob an entire company and all of it's shareholders of what is rightfully theirs. To somehow validate this underhanded takeover attempt with "this is just business" is ridiculous and caused a shadow to be cast over all of your good work here in my opinion. I wanted clarification of your stand. This is not JUST BUSINESS. This is an attempt by unscrupulous vultures who see an opportunity to steal what may be the best resource find of this century in Canada. Again, I appologize as I am seeing that your heart trully is still behind Noront and Richard Nemis. Please understand that I am currently very busy, yet trying to keep current with the gazillion posts on that particular day. As your analysis was quite lengthy, I had to scan your post very quickly, ascertaning the overall tenor as not being very supportive of Noront with your "just business," statements and thought it prudent to fire off a quick response to address this point. Let there be no doubt, I am firmly in support of Richard Nemis and his board.
