I didn't mean to imply that because some of the NOT BOD may not be straight up might be a good thing. I didn't skip Sunday school so straight up is what I'd like to see. I also thought Robert McKewan fromerly from Goldcorp had a big interest in Noront, not Robert Friedland. I stand to be corrected on this however. I have heard about the participants in AUR and what happened, so your fears are well founded. Wes appears to me to be in control and I doubt he would take the CEO job if his hands were to tied by such persons you allude to. Who do you trust? Nobody, but we have to believe in people to some degree.

You have to remember there are two kinds of people posting here. Those who own both NOT and FWR and those who only own either FWR or NOT. The former will be much more objective in their views while the latter will be looking to their own best interests. It isn't really bad either way because, as I see it, we all have much to gain or much to lose. Cheers also to you!
