Much agreed gents. Someone needs to send a scout/sentry out to Proto - I will PM him.

Richardsons - zero percent chance they'd sell a single share - if only because they could never hope to exit without collapsing the price, they have so many shares.

That aside, we have basically been in a news drought because the company switched from more of a promo company to a very serious explorer. It always had the right bones, but it's a different animal now. The strategy now is to tell the news afterwards, after proving up, instead of splashing out on the first indication and then having to backtrack. So switching from the one to the other, the clutch is disengaged between gears, and we're just reengaging now. Frustrating as that is.

I must sound like a booster. But if I thought we had no chance I'd bail. We are speculative still - an explorer not a miner - but the land and geologists couldn't be better, and the place is peppered with mines and proven deposits.

I wonder if I lost more $$ on this than anyone on this board ... it somewhat ruined me financially. Whatever. Everyone's suffering is individual. Maybe some of us could live a month in a mouldy swamp no problem (Arizona? Portee?) and others would break out in a rash at the first drop of pollen. When someone suffers, they sufferm it's individual.

Yes I darn well wish KXL would hit the motherlode. The good thing is, they really really want to hit as well - their own money is in it. They want this to work. My investment rule #1 - the team has to eat their own cooking.

It was my birthday recently, and I couldn't decide whether to blow out the candle wishing for bedroom hijinx with the woman of my dreams, or for KXL to hit big. I asked for a second candle.
