well said storm5151. we all new it was coming. maybe we are lucky its only a little less then 20%. it would not matter who replaced richard it would still be the same out come. the market sucks. it will get harder to raise funds as we go into 09 for juniors. there will be companys that don't make it. we will have 20 plus mil more to go into double eagle. we don't know when our payday will be but it will come sooner for some then others.
