Geologist Garry Denke served a CEASE & DESIST Order
Quote from: leechungsr on October 02, 2017, 01:32:22 AM
I was SO intrigued by his cryptic posts, and *poof* they were gone! Followed by the Yahoo MB clowns!
I reached out to Denke; with some personal information removed (I'm sure you can find him yourself), his reply on 1/21/12:
Hello Mr. Chun,
U. S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas barred "Garry W. Denke, Individually, and Denoco Inc." in the 97th District Court from revealing details ("Joint and Mutual Release"), the Order of Dismissal signed.

Hello Mr. Denke,
I am sure you are still following WAMU and POR7. I followed you for
some time on the Yahoo boards until your posts disappeared and we had
an influx of what most believe are fake denkes.
Many shareholders are hopeful that there are hidden assets to be
revealed after POR7 is confirmed. When people start talking about
hidden assets, your name comes to mind. Can you comment on this?
Thanks for your time.
Someone spent money on lawyers to shut him up. Thanks for the info, Chun.

Thanks, Chung, for the Denke info. While it 'officially' says nothing--it says a lot.
As I recall, before he was silenced, in addition to the mineral rights, another thing Denke referred to was rail right-of-way land owned by Wamu going back to the old days. It makes sense, when you think back to Wamu's formation 100+ years ago. In those days rail travel was paramount, and small towns sprung up around the rail lines, and grew into larger cities. Wamu's later acquisition spree included many banks that started out as small-town banks and grew.
Wamu's first financial acquisition was in 1930. But if you look at the wiki history of Wamu, under "Expansion" in numerous states, you will see an aggressive acquisition record in more recent decades, picking up countless small banks throughout the NW and Western Region, each with X number of offices. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Mutual
Not sure, but was it customary for banks to lease space in the early days? Or was it more common for investors to buy land in prime business locations and construct large, imposing bank buildings? Surely some of Wamu's acquisitions included bank-owned land/buildings in those small towns.
Although Wamu may have closed some acquired bank branches, wouldn't they have retained the bank owned land and commercial buildings in these prime locations? I wouldn't be surprised if Wamu had an entire Real Estate division that did nothing but maximize real estate investments that came with the acquisitions.
As with WamuQ, who was also silenced, I think it's important to recall WHAT was being discussed that precipitated the silencing of Denke and WamuQ.

Historic Washington Building sold for $9.6 million
Posted on August 4, 2005 by Todd Matthews
Excerpts:
"...17-story, terra cotta, 125,000 square foot office building, constructed in 1925..."
"...The structure was touted as the 'second tallest building in the Pacific Northwest' (behind Seattle's Smith Tower),..."
"...Over the years, the Washington Building was home to Brotherhood Cooperative National Bank, Tacoma Oriental Steamship, Blyth & Company, Washington Minor Hospital, Tacoma Club, American Savings & Loan, Tacoma Merchants Credit Union, Great Northern Realty, and United Mutual Savings Bank (edit: a Wamu bank acquisition in 1983 for $3.5 million, was the building part of the acquisition?).

How many typical downtown "corner bank" buildings like these did Wamu pick up via acquisitions? Did they sell them all or keep some as investments?

Bellingham National Bank Building
The town's population in 1910 was only 24,300. In 1913 investors bought land for $175,000 and constructed an imposing, 6-storey, state-of-the-art building for $200,000. It housed the bank and leased space to commercial tenants.

Exactly what he told me as well "I was hit with a Cease AND Desist", and wouldn't make or return contact after that.
Prior to that he had ALWAYS estimated the mineral values alone at 47 bill dollars
NOW this is MY SPECULATION ALONE 100% and out there.
1. IMHO Gary and his father were RESERVE ANNALISTS in the OIL and GAS industry..................
2, IMHO as WAMU was looking to sell itself WAMU needed to have a value to place on any minerals they had so they could have an accurate value of what these were valued at.
3. IMHO DENKE had all flavors of WAMU and had several times put out his numbers in each issue he held in WAMU.
4. MY 100% WAG SPECULATION here, Gary was approached told if he didn't stop all posting he would be charged with INSIDER TRADING based on his knowledge obtained during his VALUATION of WAMU's mineral interests. IMHO he was told in short go away keep your mouth shut and keep your shares or keep it up and lose it all, and be charged with insider trading, Thus the CEASE and DESIST
Again short of his being a reserve ANNALISTS and the proposed 47 bill in minerals and JUST the cease and desist order itself, everything else is JUST IMHO
But after that he went 100% dark and will not speak of this period

If WAMU owned land associated with the PERMIAN BASIN then we are literally golden. There is upward of $3.3 Trillion in untapped oil in the Permian basin...Yes that is TRILLION with a "T"!
