Pot, meet kettle. FA, how hypocritical can a person be? Your 'bashing' agenda is as clear as any 'pumper's' agenda.

You are 100% anti-FMNJ and make sure to bad mouth them whenever you can. You're the worst 'moderator' I've ever seen and I have seen a lot.

All good questions. Can we get some honest and lucid responses?

Very well thought out msesage sir.

Seems like a very fair assesment.

You're it.

I'll be here all day kiddo.

Need an update guys.....I've been away for a while and am just curious what we have to look forward to in the near future and the time lines involved?

I know the price just went up on the back of a report that higher levels of gold than anticipated were found in Escala or something to that effect?

I have read in passing that FMNJ will be releasing financials shortly? How/why will this be a good thing?

What else do we have to look forward to that might take this stock out of the dumper?

FA is a just a college student who moonlights here. This genius' opinion is no better than anyone else's but he's too young, immature and vain to have that type of self awareness at his age.

Ah, the victim card. Shucks you're making me feel guilty kid.

Not a job? Well that explains why you don't treat it like one or act professionaly.

Job or no job I doubt you constantly mocking the posters on this site was part of the deal when you signed up.

Your job is not to straighten us peasants out when we anger you, or to give us the facts, but rather to be a traffic cop here and keep things civil.

Instead, you mock the posters and rub the fact that most are losing money in their faces.

The fact that you're a 'moderator' is a joke.

I thought you were supposd to be some kind of moderator?Moderators are supposed to put out the flame wars not start them! Either quit as a moderator and bash away or shut your repugnant pie hole and moderate.

A lot of people have lost money on this thing and the LAST thing anyone wants to hear is you, a moderator thumping your chest as you root this company all the way into the ground.

Now you're trying to 'out' someone you suspect of being an insider? Classy! Why not PM him? No, the high road is not your style is it?

I formally complained about you last year and that seemed to put you in check for a while. Then you started with your flaming again and I decided this site was a lost cause with you on board.

Now I hear we did great volume on Friday and wanted to come check the board out again and I can see the more more things change the more they stay the same. The 'all caps' LOLOLOLOL is a classy touch. Way to stay moderate.

Wanting info about Pulacayo is a 100% legitimate concern!

Just perusing the newsletter it seems Jaime touches on it, for better or worse.

The bashers will most likely call it lies, but enountering a snag half way thru the project seems quite possible and a consultant giving them some bad info on one of his tests/surveys sounds logical as well. Not great news, but about what I had imagines......Growing pains.

15 years in Latin America here. There certainly are some unique challenges when trying to operate a business in Latin America, but I too think this thing will take off one day.....Just wish it was today.

So....You're here to 'help' us by exposing this scam then?

Thanks a million, I'm getting out now that I know it's a scam!!

Splitting hairs, but socio = partner, associado = associate.

They are commonly used the same however so it could well be he was called a partner when in fact he is still an associate and it was lost in translation.

Here's a translation. I speak Spanish as a second language but am pretty confident in this translation.......

Franklin Oil and Gas Bolivia celebrates their first anniversary

The company Franklin Oil and Gas Bolivia yesterday celebrated it's first year of operations in the country, and for that reason organized a press confererence yesterday y welcomed their new partner Charles Grégoire de Rothschild.

As you will recall, the American company Franklin Oil and Gas announced an intention to invest at least $US 320 Million in Bolivia, in the construction of a plant to transform gas to liquids in partnership with Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales Bolivianos (YPFB).

On that note they've signed a preliminary agreement or agreement in principle to work together with the state petroleum company. The exact amount of the investment will depend on the studies findings about the capacity of production and the market that would have those liquids, among them diesel, that Bolivia needs for it's internal deficit it suffers.

The production plant will be constructed in Santa Cruz. The company will create a partneship with equal shares with the State run petroleum agency and will include a plan for the training of personell and the strengthening of small and medium sized businesses.

It sures feels like something is brewing. Closed at .01, Rothchild in Bolivia, Miramonte, Escala, Frankfurt.....Just feels like something's about happen.

Trueheart, pull the thong out of your butt and get over yourself. The comment wasn't directed towards anyone specific, much less you....Chum.

Adderflux, I believe we've turned A corner, but there are many more to turn however before we reach the promised land.

In my mind a lot of people jumped on board during the ride uop or slide after the spike in May '06, thinking it'd go right back up. When it became apparent that they are now in a 'long' position many lost their patience and got angry. I also get the feeling that a lot of people have NOTHING but FMNJ stock in their porfolios on this board and therefore are living and dying with every fluctuation and PR.

I see Franklin slowly chugging along, getting their books in order, hiring specialized management, looking at partnerships with existing mining companies, looking for financing, getting listed in Frankfurt, applying for OTCBB status and generally experiencing the growing pains that any new company faces (They are new as far as I'm concerned).

For me, the positive indicators are who wants to work with Franklin. Bolivia, now Argentina, Rothchild Group, Miramonte, the Unions, etc. I don't believe that any of these countries or groups would be getting in bed with Franklin if they didn't believe 100%.

Since it's South America, I also think there's a lot of politicking and secret deals we'll never know about fueling this company. In the end I see this being a big winner......Just not as quickly as I would have liked.

Sounds about right Voz. I don't expect the climate here to change until PPS shoot up or Franklin kicks the bucket.

"There is basic principle in stock trading and that is never become emotionally attached to any one stock."

That statement is true, but it's a two way street. Just as some people are holding this stock blindly because of a positive (Some might say delusional) attachment to it, it seems even more who are holding it out of a spiteful, angry attatchment to it.

One guy wished FMNJ management to "burn in hell" last week. Now THAT'S emotional attachment!

Frankfurt and Miramonte both had substance in most people's opinions.

I'm serious. The acidic hate that fills you because of this stock is unhealthy.

* I have been called worse than a dreamer.

You should seriously sell and move on. This hatred and constant angre can't be healthy for you.

I may be naive but I don't believe this company has intentionlly misled us.

As the CEO of a start-up company, I have set deadlines that seemed absolutely realistic many times that simply didn't work out for one reason or another.

I've also entered into negotiations to partner with other companies and had it seem like a done deal only to have the ohter parties miss deadlines or back out at the last minute.

Many things can happen in business, especially an emerging business.

Again, I am not excusing missed deadlines, etc. Simply pointing out that I do not believe we have been intenionally misled and I think we've turned a corner now.

Good luck to all.

Hello all. I've been lurking for months and thought It was time to post. I got in at .015 before it went up and again at .041 when it started coming back down.

I am in the "This baby is going to $1" camp. I believe this company will go to $1 and as high as $3. Right now is the boring 'paperwork period' where the lawyers and government agencys file the paperwork and cut through all the red tape. I would venture to guess it'll be September by the time we hear more real news.

About that time, I think the price will shoot up and things will really get rolling in 4th 1/4 of '06 and 1st 1/4 of '07. They begin/implement their projects then and the test results have come back (Positively) for the other veins.

Anything between now and then is just profiteers making a buck (God bless 'em) and should be ignored.
