RE:RE:RE:First time in 35 years?

RE:RE:RE:First time in 35 years?EVH, the cynical reading would be, that management is always trying to persuade investors to buy, and not to sell, and will say anything at all times to highlight every advantage and downplay any disadvantage, to keep interest in their story, and their share price up to float more paper.  I am generally pretty sceptical of what mining companies say, and mostly it has served me well.  On the other hand, I am inclined to have a more trusting attitude with this issuer.  They have the track record, and are not trifling with their deeds or their words.  They have become masters of a tough business.  And they have the goods.  Development has not slowed, and several indications point to an imminent financing, perhaps on better terms than many expect.  We shall see.  I do not expect a major discovery any time soon, but they have time for exploration.  My take was simlar to yours, that the phone is ringing off the hook at head office, with shareholders asking about the Congo negotiations and why the stock is in freefall, and beginning seriously to doubt the company's prospects.  And management is thinking, with government negoitations perhaps soon to resolve, and a big financing coming down the pipe, it would be a shame for loyal investors to jump off the train in this valley.  Robert is saying, don't worry guys and gals, we are going to come through for you.  Just give us a little time.

Again, tax changes are not a big deal.  The election/revolution/insurrection/regime change/civil war is there as a possibility, a wild card, but it has always been there with this company.  I just can't help but think, the market does not reflect the value of the assets.  Not even close.
