The arguments about SIRG, while one-sided, are far from laughable.
In fact, it is much more laughable to assume permits and funding are imminent, and that dilution...significant dilution....is off the table. It is also laughable to assume SIRG is within months of production.
Realistically....1) permit approval is still months away, 2) funding is months after that, 3) funding will be at least partially achieved via significant additional shares being issued, and 4) production COULD start sometime in 2013...maybe...but 2014 is more likely.
If any of that happens sooner, good for us. But burying head in sand will just lead to disappointment, and an unwillingness to back out and save yourself if things don't pan out.
