No no no, "Here we go again"....rather we should say "HERE WE GO"!
 
Only four paragraphs yet so much information was confirmed in the Nelson Borch/Regburg/Eccelstone news release today. Frankly, I am so excited I don't know where to start so please let me just randomly shoot from the hip and put my thoughts on paper. 
 
Today's information confirms Ecclestone had had enough of people operating on that fine line between right and wrong. He figured out in his short time on board that some members of CCD board might have been telling him their version of the truth but definitely not the whole truth nor even considered nothing but the truth. Good on him. That alone should indicate a turning point was happening in all shareholders interest when he step down yet did not leave. Read this part of the release over a few times...'Mr. Ecclestone resigned very recently as chief executive officer due to the current board of directors refusing to break with historic poor corporate governance and self-serving actions by some of the existing directors'. That speaks volumes about Harder/InCoR/Gale/Andrews and their lack of better business management and personal morals. 
 
Ecclestone would have approved what Borch/Regburg said today to have his name beside such eye opening comment about his fellow board members. Stockhouse writers on this board have been saying this for months and now we have confirmation. 
 
But the information does not stop. Then the real meat and future agenda gets laid out for us shareholders that are looking from the outside in to this perennial cluster mess. 'Cascadero has long been run as a quasi-private family fiefdom which continues despite the board changes made in late June this year. The goal of the proposed team is to bring purely professional non-conflicted board members to the company that will focus on maximizing value for Cascadero shareholders, consider all reasonable offers for major transactions and realistically advance those assets that are in the best position to be developed.' 
 
Any shareholder that has been around for the last while only knows too well CCD has and still is run like a 'quasi-private family fiefdom'. Harder learned from BB and his sister and just assumed he could slide into the drivers seat and carry on the same old same old way of doing things. Use and abuse the helpless estate beneficiaries so he could bring in InCoR and strip the company of its most valuable assets. These naive estate kids need to wake up and start asking questions because they are just being used for leverage and have attached their wagon to the wrong person to lead them to riches. 
 
Now to the goals of what Borch/Regburg/Ecclestone mention and this is so good I have to pinch myself that someone has actually put this down in writing to shareholders: 'Proposed team is to bring purely professional non-conflicted board members'. Wait a minute, are they really referring to CCD because this would be breaking tradition of all the scumbags that have leached off of shareholders for the last decade. This I need to see to believe because I don't think my body or mind could get around such a shock to the system. Then again it also says a lot about our assets. We obviously have something interesting for people to start to want to turn this thing around. Borch/Regburg have probably the best knowledge of what potential we have because they invested over a million US up front and have put their own boots on the ground and kicked the rocks. They know something and have the skill set to do something about it. Also, my understanding they have invested in the open market to purchase as many shares as Harder has.  Does a used car salesman/insurance agent/InCor have these skill sets? Dumb question to have asked because we all know the answer. No.
 
Just a few more words if I may because I am really only scratching the service what this release has to say. This is so important because the plan is laid out and even provides an end strategy. 'Focus on maximizing value for Cascadero shareholders, consider all reasonable offers for major transactions and realistically advance those assets that are in the best position to be developed.' Now think about hat last sentence for a moment. Why would Borch/Regburg/Ecclestone put that in here. They know offers are around and Harder/InCoR will not consider them because they have their own self interest game going on. They know we have something of value that all shareholders should be able to benefit from. Amazing but not shocking because we have been saying this over and over for months and the only people disagreeing have been Whynotgetout and Cursum. Funny thing those two have disappeared from this board ever since Harder had the financials postponed and insiders are locked down form participating in the market or saying things. Coincidence, I don't think so. 
 
Now I can understand why someone like Golden Minerals has not committed to moving forward on our property. Nobody in the industry wants anything to do with Harder/InCor. Unfortunately they are typical on the TSX-V, just another cockroach. 
 
I need to stop here for tonight but there is so much more to discuss and look forward as always to other views and comments. Enjoy what happened today because it might be our last hope.
