Q, we have differing opinions about the production argument and there's no point going over them again. However, I will challenge you on one point. You say we could raise the money in 'a few days'; nothing could be further from the truth.

To raise the sums involved here, set against the backdrop we face, is a hugely complex operation, takes a very long time and is very far from being an easy task.

You've always maintained raising such huge sums is a walk in the park; it most certainly is not and, in my opinion is one of the reasons we will not be taking this into production on our own.

Eloro, personally, I find that to be in pretty poor taste.

At least your last sentence is right, Eloro. SC, a man delivering on his promises! Don't forget 2bn vs 15m - an isolated minority howling at the moon.

Yes, I seem to recall you may have mentioned this before. Perhaps you should have a read of SM's post. You'll get it one day.

Oven ready springs to mind.

SM, thanks. Very interesting and it certainly demands an announcement.

I'm sure you meant million, not thousands. I wasn't suggesting the dilution accounts for all of the reduction, but it is an obvious factor.

RK, a lot more shares.

Whatever this means, he wouldn't have spent his money if things were looking dodgy, no matter how trivial the sum involved.

Indeed, but the idea we're not in fund raising discussions seems unbelievable. In fact I don't believe it.

Swanley, yes it is, but Fort's point is a valid one, because it begs a few questions.

Or is he? The web site suggests he isn't.

Fort, yes it is strange, but technically he's not a director, although I guess the same rules apply?

That must have been an awful experience and by all accounts it's the dodgiest place in the country, but my point is, as I suspect you know, most people are going about their daily lives in exactly the same way as Mexicans do in their country. Our in-country contributor Darren, is not cowering behind the closed doors of his house and neither is SC. And quite clearly it hasn't affected the investment decisions of either Barrick or Hanc0ck.

As you've pointed out, it's all about perspective.

Pbow, and the same is true for Ecuador...just ask Darren, or SC.

SH, clearly something is 'brewing', unless SC is sitting on his ar5e staring out of his window wondering whether he should wear his pink or lime shorts for his weekend game of golf.

We need cash and he's putting something together. At least I hope he is!

SH, in one of those tedious environmental discussions you had with 1984, you told us you have four electric vans. In fact you went so far as to explain your leasing costs. You're a bit young to be experiencing memory issues.

I wouldn't really call it a 'hang up', more an understanding of the things you've said in the past. (please don't deny you were 1981 - you share an identical prose style and no one else in the known universe uses 'sweetheart' and 'poppet' as terms of sarcastic abuse)

Anyway, surely it's time for you to fire-up the electric van and head out to the rescue of those poor people whose new houses are already falling to pieces. Have a lovely day.

Ha! Coming from you that's hilarious. For your own transparent reasons you're hellbent on rubbishing this stock and I can't recall you ever accepting that things may not be as you see them. I'm afraid your hubris gets in the way of a clear-headed analysis. And don't worry, we'll never forget the porkies you spun in your previous incarnation, even if they were rather amusing.

You're not NAL and are capable of understanding nuance in an argument, so no, I'm not staging a climb down.

Anyway, have a lovely day stripping down plaster.
