Time for some "creatice thinking" at all levels, including the BOD! "Creatice thinking" got us in, no doubt will be needed to get us out, "flying" at a safe "speed!"

The $USD is rising as a result of a "trade in allowance!" IE, trade in anything and everything, particularily stock and othe market related assets for $USD, laden with "toxic potential" unparalleled in the history of capital markets!

Where do you want to be when the "Music" stops? The "band" will need a break!

What can SAN offer as a "trade in allowance?" Why not trade a % of future production for investment "now" in SAN stock? Make this offer in conjunction with the announcement of the "new and improved" 43101. Set an arbirary # of shares required, asettlement date, with the investor having to "hold" through that period with current stockholders "grandfathered" in!

Its not a new concept. Canada Trust offered a similar "marketing" program in the '70's with great success!

The banks and govts have initriated the program, let's just follow up on it with a "future" committment of "real" money - - - gold, which SAN has an abundance of running through its "veins!"

It would be "heart healthy" for long term and "newbe" investors!

Time to "squeeze"
