Umbra....with the lack of news on our minnow we (message board enthusiasts) tend to doubt or at a minimum, pick apart every single piece of news we get. The information you provided caught my attention pronto like and naturally, I wanted to learn more.

No offense intended.....just too much investigator in me to just accept what was given and go on.

What you did provide was extremely interesting and important to shareholders IMHO and in all honesty, I was more interested in what type deals Brandhuber may have made than what he was getting paid for making them.

We've been swamped on the ERHC stockboards with "bashers" who change names often and eventually bash our company of choice.

I'm sorry you take umbrage at our probing. It's hard for me to believe that your intent is as stated judging by your reaction to my questions, but assuming your intent is to add and not subtract, why do you think posters would not question the information you so kindly shared?

You're another mystery-man, only one who takes offense at being asked to provide his bona fides. If you know anything at all about these message board venues you would know that the kind information you provide, because it seems credible and is specific, will either be questioned and probed in order to determine it's veracity, or it will be ignored.

I'm sorry you take offense at this. But nobody in their right mind is just simply going to believe what you say without some clarification!

Umbra, I respect your intentions and,...

whether you believe it or not, I am very grateful for the information you share. I would also hope you do not place your career in jeopardy for anyone on this board.

I did take your comment of "Grandhuber's" incentive package the wrong way after rereading your posts. For that I apologize but any prudent investor should be aware of the incentive packages offered to management.

Umbra,

I strongly disagree with your contentions but that does not mean I have set a tone. I welcome the dialog. My opinions are my own, but by the engagements of many it does not appear I'm alone in my thinking. By your reference to people being overly invested tends to create additional anxiety. Raw nerve endings are assured by such ambigous posts. Many people here have an entrenched loyalty to this company. Collectively we hope that this loyalty has not been misplaced or even worse taken advantage of by our trusted benefactors. We are here based on a lot of due dillegence, faith, reinforcement from each other that our thinking is similar and that is that this company is for real. It is substantiated by ADDAX, and its IPO, News releases from the Company saying they have rights, verifiable reports from industry experts on the conclusions being drawn. Despite all that there is a nervousness because of all the turmoil over the years, and the uncontrolled political process that comes with becoming a recognized player in the oil industry. Keep posting.

umbra: I for one have appreciated your input, and also realize that if you are in a position to know details about some of the topics you have addressed, that you are limited in what you can disclose. Don't let the board get to you. Thanks again for your support.

Umbra thanks for your input. I agree about the nerve ends. I am a little short tempered too. I do feel that some of the comments made to you are have been overly antagonistic. Be aware it is not you so much as some are suspisious of others posting here, some like Meridian who have been here a short time yet their posts are read by some as the gospel.

I do not know who you are nor particularily care. Most of your posts have been civel and at the least show some thought, and perhaps more intimate knowledge than many of us have here.

I will look forward to your future posts. Do not quit posting because of the animous of a few, some of which like Strass are fair minded in the end.
