John ...

It's terrific that you're posting prodigious potfulls of info up on Agoracom. It's always appreciated - especially by me. By the way, I remember clearly after the SPQ AGM when you reached across the table to shake my hand. It was heart felt. Thanks. And a second by the way: I said to Neil Novak recently that if SPQ gets to 10 cents by the PDAC show, I'm buying a plane ticket to Toronto. We can then share another coffee.

"Why not do your old "fiesty" friend a favor, and get all info you can on the Geology and actual layouts/locations of the Chromite deposits on all 3 NOT, FWR and SPQ...I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated by all..."

You bet I'm going to try and get as much info as possible. I'm pretty sure that FWR will have some maps. Whatever is available, I will get. And I'm taking along my camera and a digital voice recorder. I will see whether "provinsys" (Jim) in Kitchener will once again put up the pictures on his server.

The NOT NR today was good. Typical of the market to knock the sp down, however. Clearly "buy on rumor, sell (before) on news". Fourth quarter of 2009 for NOT, I think.

As mentioned previously, my recent discussion with Neil Novak of SPQ was excellent. I purposefully do not discuss Noront with him. And I think he appreciates it; so he opens up and talks about his "baby" - SPQ. I checked the SPQ website today, and it has not been updated. Neil mentioned there will be some good changes coming shortly. I think he realizes that the web can be a very useful tool for marketing his company. I know for a fact the Spider Resources will not be at the Vancouver conference, and Neil won't be there either. He needs to focus on the 43-101 in Toronto getting ready for PDAC.

Although I have a good position in FNC, I don't really follow it. With the Sheridan cabal lurking in behind, and old man Sheridan sitting in the Keg on Adelaide Street drinking his dry martinis (I'm only guessing), not much is going to happen to this play until NOT skyrockets, or a major comes a-knockin'.

Finally, if FWR hits something big (good odds I think) in the way of either base metals (e.g., NI or CU) or PGEs, then I honestly think EVERYTHING changes. There would be a massive run up in share price, and NOT may end up taking a back seat. FWR shareholders are well served by Mac Watson. But we have to remain vigilant with regards to "raiders".

Keep up with the great posts, Feisty :)
