Baires: Did I sound pessimistic? Not at all, quite the opposite, surprised you took it that way. I am just trying to counter those here who are pessimistic and justify it by talking about what they "know" is going to happen. I am much more relaxed and confident about it. think predicting how and when and why is a waste of time. But I think this is going to be a handsome gain in my portfolio, because I trust that the principals S, B, Sprott and Interinvest are going to take it to production whatever it takes, and we are along for the ride. That's all I need to know. Ike
