in my head, that gut feeling supported by admonitions from wizened and tested experts, going back to the day I first was informed about SFMU 2008 ... unfortunately was ignored by myself and others ... namely (similar to real estate 'location, location, location') that MANAGEMENT is the absolute #1 consideration to investigate before all, was ignored ... and I paid bigtime .. as did so many others. Oh yes, I investigated PQ and 'overlooked' all te red flags in his past. Mea culpa. Hindsight has only magnified the lack of wisdom on my part. I just couldn't get over the 'pot of gold' in War Eagle. Oh, it's there alright, but there are often pitfalls between a fool and his gold. We all know what those are now.

The typical opportunists/snakes in trading and 'funding' have driven PQ into the corner, similar to hundreds of juniors out there... many of which have managements that have made nice income all along the way. It's the journey for them, bankruptcy or not. They win, the shareholders lose. On a day to day basis we shareholders really have no idea the breadth and scope of illegal trading activity in this sector... which has destroyed many juniors. The 'ONLY' difference for SFMI is that huge resource waitiing for the plucking... and the criminals know it. The 'PROBLEM' is that the management has been forced to deal with the devil multiple times and the result is near checkmate as the bleeding weakens the prey. The salvation for PQ et al, is being forced to accept much less than that dreamed of, a producing gold miner with a share value of many dollars. That is not going to happen because he is not 'the dealer'. It will be a 'take it or leave it' deal or deals ... a bitter compromise. Oh yes, we will get a nice return from here at 2 cents, but cetainly not from 'there' at 40 cents. The final squeeze is on as the vice tightens. What will be the best comprmise for PQ and his family?

Gold and silver will go to over $3500 and $100 but not soon enough for the sareolders of SFMI to make huge returns I'm afraid. We will begin to see some major 'acquisitions' reeeel cheap in the PM sector soon. Dilution looms for the nearly dead. The big bucks go to the carpetbaggers.

Sorry folks, but at least buyng here should reap multiples ... that's the good news... unless something is really amuck.
