K2., a wee bit severely lacking (& i say that.. ever-so-politely) when one complains of personal attacks, then immediately resorts to using them... '..The sooner you realise that the shareholder action has a purpose rather than action for the sake of action, the better....' & now starting to get a wee bit tired of being ignored. So, i Again question it : Could you care to explain what that 'purpose' is, AND what the reference to 'Army watches & blood pressure monitors', is all about ? The casual bb reader, is perhaps now getting a tad concerned, bud, on those shenanigans, those suspicious pre-meet untruths, followed by suspicious intent(s). you get the gist.. do cough up and put us all out of our... mystery. HITS., as the self-proclaimed 'expert in languages' then i'm pleased to see, that your definition of Supposition, which you had earlier falsely defined as '...or if you like, hope/faith/belief....', has now taken the more correct definition, namely that of a belief without proof, without certain knowledge, And surprise, surprise, that yet again you have proceeded to obfuscate your posts... Was it your latest version of supposition (belief Without proof) covering those you say of 'a more jaundiced view', which was in place, whilst all the senior shorters, proceeded to cancel their shorts, half-way through Health-Expo week ?

K2., So, now who is playing 'Spooks' ?! with your '..if you spent less time attacking me...' I politely asked you yesterday if what Tracy had been insinuating re the Twitter Group chasing the route of further high-tech gadgetry, with her reference (cryptic indeed!) to , '..blood pressure monitors...& army watches..' was possibly actually true. AND I then politely declined from chasing your lack of answer, so it could Hardly be said that I am guilty of attacking you...?! '..attacking those pro-EGM..' and sorry bud, but did you yourself not cringe when some of the more moronic & indeed some of the more violently aggressive, pro-EGM muppets posted ? Not too sure I'd agree with your comments though on how Amit should fear & tremble, at the sound of the SHAG coming. I've got a large percentage of them down as.. idle chancers... For example....Just take a look at HITS & his latest obfuscations : 'supposition' is a belief held without proof, or certain knowledge. In the example i'd given, Young Hex, then creates the belief without proof, that I take every word of Amit's as gospel '...anything Amit says about how great the Onitor is, you believe...' So, pure fabrication, utter nonsense, with No valid proof or No certain knowledge. & hence why I posted of his 'weak argument made up of supposition for suggesting this'. Had he been party to the earlier emails that were floating around & to which Amit responded to, then he would realise that I am prone to giving Amit liberal doses of grief. HITS in usual fashion then clouds the issue, with his '...it's a bit rich to accuse anyone doubtful of the company of "supposition"...', So yet again, fabricated nonsense. He is somewhat tiring with his '..rather piqued interest...' 'More substantiated info' and I think we can all agree on that one bud.

HITS., 'opinions as expressed' then sees you with repetitive provocative posts sic... '...paid shills.....desperately blinkered...star struck....attempts to control the debate..' whilst masquerading as the image of balanced decorum. & quite frankly, failing. It is a bb bud, & indeed we are allowed to post our opinions no matter how condescending or how full of contradictions they may be, and likewise we are also free to formulate opinion, from said posts. Gaffy, A recent late night ramble/photo exped to the top of Inverness's local Munroe, carrying all the kit, for 6hrs+ then resulted in these shattered wee legs seeking retirement in the the 4-seasons sleeping bag that i keep in the van. Waking up to a left-over, frozen solid, cup of coffee, meant switching the heaters on. Back into work at lunch-time for another 24hr shift, revealed that the temps had dropped to -7c. Yesterday's excursion, saw c.25k's with 10hrs of alternating hard neve plus difficult snow-drifts across 4 tops, then a slow drive rtn to home. This then resulted in the van having some tizzy reactions after only 1hr & 15 mins of driving, '..take a break... take a break..'. I had set the heaters on max defrost mode (wind chill was severe) and as my eyes slowly thawed, the salt around them, began itching. Several blinks later, saw the van react. Lol. Very much looking forward to warmer times.

Hi Gaffy, 33M at c.1p saw me as a happy chappy the moment it was in the 3's. And I had told everyone on the bb during the prior 6 months, that was my target. small holding now but its not for Slovenia, its for when CH takes AST into its next venture. He's got a very good write up for working in 'inhospitable' regions & is liked by the financiers. When old Dinosaur Dan started his short : "..lets form a shareholder action committee' then was always destined to go south.

*immaturity*

K2., there is a reference time frame for Abman's posts : 1. late 2015. a background poster on 88 & a lack of conviction resulted in very few posts. 2. early 2016. on the day of good news, he was suddenly the most prolific "expert" poster. 3. mid 2016. his new found confidence then saw him engage ramp mode in CTAG. So yes, there is an enthusiasm, he does do his homework, he does create meets & he does travel to talk to the CEOs. The wee bit immunity seen, is in his excessive ramps & blinkered approach to assessing pitfalls. 3. early 2017 & its then seen he has commercial interests in promoting stocks. So, at which point did he promote CTAG ? (A) when riding the wave of confidence with his new found fame as the 88 promoter, or (B) when allegedly he "...at least tried to offer his services to act in a certain way...." ? Based on the above timelines in his behaviour, & having learnt a wee bit of what makes him tick, then i still err on the side of over-enthusiasm, mixed in with his immaturity. When the stocks are in the ****, then most peeps will always look for others to blame. I appreciate your concerns on the wild ranting from both sides of the argument. This latest episode appears to have started when a poster wrote of a possible connection a to Amgen, but who stated, he thought it may be hype, yet subsequently he was immediately perceived as being in the 'star-struck' camp of Amit's.... I'm guessing bud, that with this kind of negative rants, then peeps will refrain from updating any possible links, e.g.. any possible new 2018 patents. HITS., nice to see that the effects of the sauce have worn off & that you are now advocating 'you enjoy balanced debate' as apposed to your last night's bitter shenanigans.

Morning bud, A wee bit further reading shows I've refered to Abman as both 'enthusiastic' And 'immature'. I still stand by that. I can't be sure that Wakey is correct either, but currently when looking at all the arguments being raised on here, the balance of probability suggests there may indeed be validity in Wakey's argument re ex-employee(s). How else do you explain the wild rantings of pro-EGM camp with their extremely feeble arguments, inclusive of 'paid shills' ?! Enjoy the day bud. I'm jumping out the scratcher & off to hit my local costa; full fat lattes.

"....This action to call an EGM is gathering momentum fast so....." So... Not quite got 10% yet. Not bloody surprising though is it ? The EGM camp posts of 'Amshit...paid stooges....frantic anti-egm campaigning..' and other such aggresive fighting-talk nonsense. Makes one wonder, if Wakey was correct after all ? '..that background orchestration Is manipulated by resentful ex-employee(s)....' As I said a few moments ago, 'keep up the good work' lads. You are your very own worst advertisers, for any reasoned approaches.

HITS., Your posts have recently resulted in the question being asked; 'are you taking enough supplements....?' A quick read of your late night efforts now sees that question being modified, 'are you perhaps taking too much... sauce ?'. "...paid shills.....desperately blinkered...star struck....attempts to control the debate.." Keep up the good work. I'm a strong believer that most peeps who do commit seriously, are astute enough to carry out a wee bit due diligence & put balance in their reasonings. Your current crop of loud rhetorics, will be seen for what it is, someone venting petulance..... The consternation that you believe one person is stoppng you from calling an EGM. Lol, try Rereading your rather pitiful arguments, prior to posting....?

Hits., I'd disagree, on two points : Shenanigans as you put it, were the valid responses of those who replied to your request for information. & '..Presumably it's not an EGM in and of itself that people are getting aerated about..it's the resolutions that might be contained in such an EGM? ..' and yet some peeps might simply be querying why we are 'throwing away' the opportunity of an EGM, whilst they believe, there is currently an interesting period of development that is being looked at with the new direction that the project has taken.

Hits., Something we both agree on then : '.... So yes, a bit more explanation/background from the alternative SAG would be most welcome to help people make a more informed decision..." We just vastly differ on our interpretations of how much value the colourful diatribes give, if any value at all, to any discerning readers of the argument. 'to EGM or not to EGM' Indeed. Cue much shenanigans.. Machiavellian or simply cantankerously dictatorial.

Hits, you consistently fail to see the contradictions in your argument : '.....My recent issue was with the unjustified mixing - deliberate or accidental - of the questions "should an EGM be called?" with "should an EGM be called that elects AM to the BoD?.....' '..is this potential group of action being managed by the original Shareholders Action Group, or a separate body of Pis ?..' Then followed by '.....so yes, a bit more explanation/background from the alternative SAG would be most wellcome to help people make an informed decission....' It could perhaps be summarised that the unjustified mixing of the questions, is indeed Accidental, for was it not You who raised the very 1st question on the origins of those asking for this EGM ?? As apposed to your subsequent deliberate attempts in clouding the issue, when the answers that you then received, were not too your liking ?

Appreciated. i'll take a break from further discussion, but will ponder on all that's been said. Lol.... "she's a witch, she's a witch........ burn her, burn her !!...'

'short comings' was to do with your manifesto, of which you are only a small part. That is your own short-comings you are raising. Your approach to shareholders imo was wrong ; my approach, would have been to attack Jamie Bligh's over controlling nature, which imo would have been enough to galvanise 10%

K2., unlike the shallow centred thinking shown by Hits, who simply believes that any EGM & any debate around that topic are pointless, i throw in a 3rd possibility ; that it may be useful, at some point, in. the. future. At the moment, and no, i do not have an interest, primarily i want to find out where Amit has picked up his new confidence from. So yes, it is good that you are arguing the pros of such an event, but as has been highlighted, you have several short-comings to work on. What time frame? & I'm guessing within two months.

Care to expand on your dimension of reality ? So far, & you've chastised the bb for playground politics, for irrelevancies, for clouding the issues, yet seem to glibly commit these acts wantonly : '...being a fan as I am of reality....' from the same poster who posted 24/7 for 6 months on the failings of Greaseball & who now has a bee in his bonnet, that one young lady had successfully managed to talk Amit into meeting for a cuppa, & courtesy of that cuppa, was then able to formulate her opinions ??? '... rather than pipe dreams'... are who exactly, are having those pipe dreams, those wishing for an EGM or those against an EGM ?? Your version of reality, sees a rather enormous ego, trying to control, what you yourself recently quoted as 'a stock i'm not seriously involved in'..... nice dimension of reality you have bud.

Lol. deliberate v not-so-deliberate. A lot of peeps are concerned. Are you taking enough supplements ?

Appreciated bud, indeed sound advice.. 'be careful who you listen to'.

a bit dramatic could also describe the posts that LSE have sadly removed this morning, from a certain 'snakeymitch' which rather wonderfully highlighted the current 'smear campaign' that is going on ? Lol, The 'dramatic' is in the telling, as perhaps say Mr.Moss asking to be renumerated from the shareholders & now happily has reverted to 'FOC'....

Morning Tracy, quick question, is there any validity in the rumour, that on 1st proposed doffee meet 25th Jan, Amit was more than willing to meet some shareholders inclusive of the Shareholder Group rep, simply to enquire & assess confidence levels, and that at the last moment he called it off, when it came to light that the meet was to be hijacked, ie. that some members of the anti-Amit twitter group had planned to attend & confront ? That the 'JB' excuse was in fact only partly the reason....
