I suspect so. He usually responds almost immediately to little questions, thus, my suspicion is he is up to his armpits in alligators getting the quarterly numbers out. I suspect the news release will be out this week, answering all the outstanding issues. As near as I can recall, we are awaiting:

Assays and reports on the drill bit at Xora.

Aerial survey results in ROF.

Hard numbers on production at La Yesca.

The master plan for the next few quarters.

I think the master plan for Mexico is fairly straightforward. Keep on tuning up the mill and poke a few holes, especially looking for a few more glory holes around that one at Copalquin or whatever it's called.

The master plan in the ROF on the other hand is going to require a brain far larger than mine. More plot twists up there than a mystery novel.

My opinion, as a long term holder here, is to putz away in the Ring, utilizing the cash from La Yesca that is not spent there without issuing any more paper. I don't see the need for speed up there. Slow and steady, methodical exploration within our means.

I am sure Jim will value my opinion, given that the farthest depth of exploration into the earth's crust that I have undertaken is planting my gladiolas last weekend about 5" down. I have not received assay results yet as the lab is backed up.

What say you, other armchair QB's? Hoov, has the weather got you again? Aafab, Stevie, Goldbarron et al?
