To our Spanish friends ... my condolences on this national tragedy.
Doc ... Great post about Grandma! I'm glad she is feeling better and back in the saddle again.
Would you kindly pass along the name of the park you mentioned earlier? It sounds like a great place to combine both camping and trout fishing. Any trout stream I have ever seen runs through some beautiful countryside! Thanks Doc. dj
Hello Doc ... Yes, I just started fly fishing for trout last year and thoroughly enjoy being out in those beautiful streams and rivers. I'm hoping to get up to Lake Norfork and fish south of the dam next week. dj
DIR ... I'm sure you and your family are counting the days till your nephew arrives home. He could probably tell you how many hours are left. I hope your wish regarding NSDM comes true! Looking forward to watching the company grow and succeed! dj
OT: Doc, I live down in Memphis and have been doing some fly fishing on the Spring River and White River. Do you get down that way?
Best wishes to your son and also Earthworm if you are still on the board Earthworm. I appreciate the sacrifices that you, Doc Silkworth's son, your colleagues and their families make for all of us wherever in the world you may be. All the best and safe journey. dj
Lulubado ... Pulling A2's post was the RIGHT thing to do! A2 displayed incredible lack of charachter by posting a confidential message with a request to not post. Ask yourself ... how would you feel in the same situation?
Personally I felt the message A2 posted from Walter was more positive than negative. That is beside the point. It was requested the conversation not be posted.
I wonder if Walter had A2's number by that point and knew he would post it anyway using reverse psychology against an overly inflated ego? A2's post was unexcuseable any way you cut it! dj
Prince ... I am not a paid subscriber and was able to access the link from where you describe. dj
Doc ... Big congratulations to your son!!!
Doc ... Good luck to your son today in his events. dj
Deann, I believe the post A2 presented regarding a confidential reply from Walter should be removed and A2 banned from posting here. dj
A2 ... it is uncalled for that you posted Walter's reply which he asked you not to. You are not to be trusted in my opinion. You change your ideas with the wind. Goodbye already! dj
diamondpro ... is this your post? What's changed with the company since then?

A2 you have to be the single most optimistic person I have ever come across. I don’t now if you now something I don’t, or if that is just the kind of person you are.
Either way there is no point in worrying about things you can’t control, and no use in worrying about things were you’ve done all you can. I’m in this thing long it could drop to .01 jump to 1.00 I would just rather not take the risk of selling and this thing blowing up which I think it will do in the next year or so.
If everything keeps going the way it is. I say five years we will be in the 10 15 dollar range.
Diamond Princess ... thanks for your even keeled, rational approach. I have appreciated reading your posts along with those of many other steadfast owners. I think the company is making steady, but sure progress. I do not believe Rome was built in a day and that is how I feel about this company. Regards, dj
Anyone have any Deep Woods Off??? Holding long. dj
Doc ... Thank you! dj
I agree about the morning releases. I think they would produce greater immediate impact and visibility for our company. JMO
Doc ... I've been holding ALMI long also. As you have walked the property, any thoughts about the company and thoughts about what has been happening this AM regarding some volatility on the PPS? Thanks in advance. dj
A2 ... Best wishes for a quick recovery to you.
Prince ... my guess for close of business Tuesday .111
Dan ... congratulations to you and best wishes. Good luck to all! Regards, dj
Devon ... you have posted some good stuff in the past and even from Raging Bull you had been accurate regarding some of your information, but you swing 180 degrees with the wind. How can anyone trust what you say? dj
I bought in this past summer on Ukraine developments ... Canada is just gravy. Hoping for a sleeper surprise out of Ukraine. Regards all! dj
Interesting ... Doc, if the high number is included how does this change the statistics? thanks, dj
Doc ... this is an intriguing project. I think Dan would be proud. The issue of the float has been at question since this past summer and has been a piece of the puzzle that has been missing. Some of the earliest posts on the Raging Bull board were about this very point.
As Prince indicated, the 25 million number out there for a while was really confusing, especially with the kind of volume that we were seeing.
Interesting project! Thanks Doc and Prince. dj
Prince ... one should be responsible for their own integrity. This will never be an exact science anyway as the share count will change on a daily basis and not all will respond. I think this should only give us a rough idea of the percentage of the float we may be holding here. dj
Doc ... I am more comfortable with this idea now. The float is higher than we originally thought, but at least we have a better idea. I continue to believe we will do great! Holding 1,345,560 long.
Prince, thanks for tabulating. Regards and good luck longs. dj
I think Deann would be a great choice to forward and receive info from the comapny.
I have not appreciated the recurring childish antics. I believe we would attract more readers and posters by keeping things sane and above board. I disagree with a strategy of a company discussing business matters with one public investor to the exclusion of other investors. I do not believe that was or is Walter's intention. I especially disagree with an investor trying to use information in an effort to manipulate others.
On a different issue ... any thoughts about NSDM getting listed on some of the European exchanges? dj

.053 now ... volume close to 3 million.
Thanks A2. Has anyone discussed releasing the PRs Tuesday mornings vs after close of business? I think the stock price would initially react more positively and gain greater exposure than from the releases after hours IMO. Any thoughts on this point and has anyone already discussed this with the company? dj
Thanks Deann. dj
.072
Best wishes for 2004 all. dj
good point ... I'm long, however, and as I have previously stated I believe Walter is an honorable man. I just like seeing both sides ... good or bad ... better to make informed decisions. dj
A democracy without debate is not a democracy.
I appreciate a rational debate and I think we have been seeing a good exchange of ideas here recently both pro and con.
I think seeing both sides of the coin helps each of us more adequately understand our position on this security. dj
TSX... good post regarding the 40 million share float. This is one of the reasons I invested in the company along with the the belief about the vision for Ukraine and vertical integration of the company.
For those that were on the Raging Bull board early this was the approximate number in the float that folks seemed to be making decisions upon.
Even in October, however, the volume did not seem to support the relatively small number believed to be in the active float. Below is one of my posts from October that questions this very point:

Active Float?
I too have wondered about the volume vs active float. I have been holding long through the up and down and will try to add more to the position. With the float that has been reported, however, it seems like a huge volume to have exchanged hands. Any thoughts on this? Thanks and regards, dj
(Voluntary Disclosure: Position- Long)
Holding long and still certainly believe in the company. I made this point only to support what you said about one of the reasons folks may have invested in the company. For one reason or another ... someone trading free shares or naked shorting, this 40 million seems to have grown substantially. Perhaps too there was misunderstanding early on about what was really out there available for trading. Remaining positive about good things to come! Regards, dj
end2war ... good post regarding the shorting and perhaps some individual selling free shares.
I am long on the company and will remain long because I believe in the vision of the company and that Walter is an honorable man. As I added more on the way down at .08 I wondered why an individual with perhaps some knowledge of the company would continue to sell many shares with the potential this company seems to have.
I came up with two scenarios: 1: This individual knows something unfavorable we don't or 2: This individual knows something favorable we don't and is trying to unload all his free shares buying back in at the bottom in expectation of the good things to come ... effectively receiving multiple benefits of the shares he held.
I am an optimist and believe in scenario #2 and continued to add on the way down.
I appreciate the increased discussion on this issue as I believe this is at the heart of our declining PPS right now. Hopefully as some posts have indicated, the selling is complete and the stock will react more favorably to the good news at hand. Regards and looking for good things to come! dj
Dan and Sortagreen ... thanks for the reply and info on naked shorting. It is difficult to imagine this is allowed. dj
Hello Dan and all!
I am not selling either, but I have a limit sell order in at $20.00 per share with Etrade. I have read from other boards that the only way to prevent MMs from using your shares for naked shorting is to either receive the stock certificates from your brokerage company or to place a high sell limit.
As the pink sheet market seems so highly unregulated I don't know that either of these really prevent MM manipulation of the stock?? Any thoughts on this strategy from the financial wizards on the board?
Also ... I would not be adverse to sharing my share count in a more private forum, however, for a couple of reasons I prefer not to do it in the public forum ... primarily to prevent MM manipulation if that is possible. If there is an established long ... Dan or another regular long on the board I would be happy to send the share count there. Regards to all. DJ (Rooter52 on RB)
Just wanted to get on board to support the longs! I'm in with an average .071 . Prior to adding to the position recently around .08 I called the company to get my own perception of things. After speaking with Walter personally the stock continued a downdard spiral so I'm certainly not guilty of insider trading!
I believe I am good judge of character and came away from the conversation believing Walter is an honest man trying to make great efforts with a young company. I bought in initially because of perceived opportunities in Ukraine and the vertical integration possibilities there with the company if diamonds are mined.
Like most folks on the board here I was dismayed as the stock continued a downward spiral. I thought .10 would be the floor. I do not understand what seems to be manipulation of the stock. There have been a couple of recent posts that seem to make sense to me regarding this issue. I remain positive about the future of the company.
Thank you Dan and to the many folks on the board providing such great research! Regards and good luck to all! dj
Doc ... best wishes to your son in Iraq and your family. I appreciate the sacrifices those like your son, his colleagues and their families make for each of us regardless of our political views
