Hi In XS,
Apologies for the delay in reponse to your post. Working for a living has it downsides...
Since I listen better than I read, it wasn't clear if your issue with my post was my optimism relaying info to the board or with IR itself, or maybe both, so my thoughts on all.
As you said "Let's not get ahead of ourselves just yet. Visually speaking EXS would have already hit the glory hole."
My investment style is proactive. So I am always scanning the horizon for information from any source with which to form opinions and make decisions. Hence I do not consider that getting ahead of anything. I don't exactly understand the next sentence ,but the term 'visually speaking' was my own, simply because the comments emanating from the 50.5 meter core are based only on visual appearence. A segment of a core that is this thick and has caused so much excitement internally, puts me in mind of the 80 meters belonging to Lakeshore. I did have a misquote in parens when referring to what was said about this core. After thinking about it, I recalled that what Gary had actually said was "unfreaking believable".
As you said "Gary told me and many of you that this set of drill results will be the best ever.
Oh sorry he meant the next set."
My belief here is that "best ever' would have held true but something beyond the company's control caused a delay in assay results. Spring time drilling is picking up and the labs are slammed. The plan was to have news before the meetings this next week so we went back to what we had. I personally find Gary at IR to be honest, open and forthcoming in my dealings with him. At any time, should I find him to be less than honest, I would take him to task as I would anyone else.
As you said "Don't get me wrong. I look forward to seeing the story unfold. However we need to stop setting expecations so high that we can't meet expectations". My expectations for this stock are exceedingly high. But whether or not these expectations are met or not, depends not upon anything I or any one of us might say or think, but upon Explor being able to deliver the drill based results to support their statements about the size and type of deposit that they geologically believe this property may host.
As for my 'seminal' events comment. I believe these are upcoming events that anyone with more than a passing interest in this stock could list quite quickly.They are facts. The only thing we don't know is whether they are positives or negatives(I personally believe they will all be positive.Though at least one(Kidd Creek, may be neutral or even negative...
I hope this serves to clarify. As always GLTA!
