Very well said in a very succinct way. The SPARK way I suppose.
I'd like to share some thoughts here if you don't mind...
I have absolutely no intention of selling a single share anytime soon. The "spike" to .20 was nice, but will pale in comparison to where the PPS will be heading in the future. That is why I didn't bother selling any on the way up. In fact, I can honestly say I have not sold a single share since I first bought in during the Fall of 2007.
I would love to be able to say that I could just turn a blind eye to this stock and check it, oh, say once a week, or once a month. But that would be a lie. I'm too "invested" in this stock (figuratively and literally) and love to watch the day-to-day. It's interesting to see the reactions of people as the volatility increases (both up and down). It gives one a good idea of who is here and for what reasons. It's amazing what you can learn if you sit back and "observe" with an open, yet critical mind.
As I said in an earlier post: If you honestly believe that sometime down the road the stock will reach 50c, $1, multiple dollars, then really what does this week's price action have to do with it? It's just a bumpier road to the eventual destination.
Trust in Scott and the team that they have common goals to those who are HONESTLY invested long here (i.e. increased company value thus increased shareholder value).
And try to take little nuggets from everything you hear - whether it's talking to Merle, listening to a Wallst.net interview, revisiting the PRs, etc.
When you hear Scott mention something like the "potential" for getting 2 or 3 drills turning to expedite the drilling program in the Hawke and SE zones, do you think he's just saying that for the heck of it? Or do you think that's possibly foreshadowing for exciting potential developments? Triple your drills, and cut your drilling time in a third, yes? Stands to reason, does it not? That takes the 18 month drill program that some here are "worried about" down to a half-year program (potentially). That also could suggest that updates will come fast and furious along the way about new and exciting results. By the way, did anyone catch in the 43-101 that there was a very specific "budget" suggested as to how much this will cost. And did anyone notice that they've ALREADY STARTED? Do you think on Sarissa's documented "shoe-string budget" that they can finance this on their own? We are confident they won't dilute to do this, so what other options are there? Hmmmmmm...I'm just sayin'.
The above is just one example of how you can take a "nugget" from a publicly released document and you can start to get the gears turning as to what that could potentially mean.
Scott is VERY calculated with his words and does not say or suggest things he cannot follow through on. That much he has proven in the last nearly two years.
We have SO MUCH to look forward to in the coming weeks and months. Yes, we will be subjected to MM games. But in the end, if you are a true long invested in this company and the team guiding it, the fundamentals will prevail.
That's it. That's all. My rant for the day.
I'm out of posts, so I wish everyone a good night.
Better days and higher prices are on the horizon folks. Believe it!
EDIT: Just read your post Teedlum and it was excellent. You echo many of my own thoughts (or perhaps I echo yours - haha). Terrific advice and suggestions. Patience, once again, will pay dividends (maybe literally further on down the road...)
