I appreciate your astute analysis of how mining companies can work or not work as the case may be. So, unless you are clairvoyant or do great research you are chasing the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow so to speak. I think you are right about that for most exploration start ups. With DGRI, there is a thread of knowledge that DRCAL has repeated on a number of subjects about the company that in his opinion set DGRI apart for the masses. Hollis and Pertuu have invested a lot of their own money in the company. The resources are real and verifiable. One of our members here put boots on the ground on the property while the drilling was being done. I didn't memorize the exact litany of the property acquisition process from company to company but I view it as a very creative way to stitch together some assets and build a company. The original Chairman of the Board, who owned the failed Oregon property and is a major DGRI stockholder along with his daughter and son in law have a big vested interest in the success of the company. Don't forget that the son in law was the mine manager in Oregon and he is still on the payroll. Can you see why there is motivation to put together an active mining operation somewhere. It now looks like the Double E in Arizona may be that property to be able to utilize that human resource appropriately. Don't you think the former chairman and his daughter would be happy about that? I would. I think what you are dealing with with DGRI is group of people with business and personal interest that are closely related. They all know the statistics and the odds of pulling one of these things off but it appears they are working together in all good faith. There doesn't seem to be any one person or group of persons who stands to gain much from fleecing the shareholders. They have told you that it takes $50,000 per month to run this thing and they are going to raise the money one way or the other. They make a living and that's it. If you are the CEO and make $10,000 per month you ain't gettin' rich. I agree that management somehow hasn't been able to build a stable PR bridge between the company and many of it's shareholders and I think it is a good thing for the shareholders and the company to create an open forum to continue to improve in this area. I believe the conspiracy among these folks is to build a successful mining company and create long term sustainable shareholder value. Mining Company, not just a exploration company because it is painfully apparent that if that is how you are perceived, it's hard to get some folks to take you seriously.
