Jim Bishop: I will refer the site to my friend, who, I am sure, will be most interested, and will scrutinize the story closely.
My friend does not invest in stocks, and his comments to me several weeks ago, when I mentioned that I was investing in PAIM, were initially, "be careful"; then, after reflection, he went into great detail about Japanese gold on the island, the government's previous restrictions on mining, and how in the current atmosphere in the Phipippines, this could all make real sense.
I subesquently jumped into the stock big time and we will see where it takes us.
If you have read my posts over the past 5 hours, there is an inference that could be drawn, although not directly from my comments, that is extremely advantageous to shareholders of PAIM. I doubt that even Janice Schnell, with her obvious analytical capabilities, will figure it out. The inference I am referring to was pointed out to me by my friend, who, as an investigative reporter, visited the Philippines years ago, interviewed and stayed with Imelda Marcos, and wrote articles on Philippine affairs.
Were someone to conclude what they think this inference is, I will not acknowledge it on this board.
I will say, however, that if this inference pans out, the shareholders of PAIM will indeed become quite rich.
