Hi Marcos. I live out West, like some stuff back east and in newfoundland--awaay back east. I like to eyeball the guys where i put my money. I havn't been doing this too long, and never was around people who ran co's etc--i'm a country boy. I walked into an oil/gas co in calgary and introduced myself. Those guys told me that very rarely does an investor drop in, and one who actually knows anything ( i used to work oilpatch) was almost unheard of. We've since become friends, I've stayed with the pres, when i'm in town. I like the personal contact, and i want to meet the people. I'm into several co's, and on most of them, when i want to know something, i call the president. Not a big investor, have been lucky enuf to find some good co's and good people. Most of it hasn't been luck--I've got a friend for a broker who is former mining engineer. He likes resources and mostly specializes in Canadian ones. He's lined me up with most of them, and i've "networked" out from there. Anyway, i'm rambling on because i've enjoyed your posts--and several others--and feel its only fair to tell something about myself. Currently i'm buying ctg.v like vul.v and believe als.v is a no brainer. gys.v looks cheap, hardly anybody knows it's alive and some games are being played. Re PDA---i'm going to meet people, I'll be glad to share what i learn. Regards. lj

Barker has a good show mineralogy-wise, every PDA. It always looks interesting. It was their PDA show that seemed serious and discovery-oriented that kept me on the company. That and the VMS geology in those funny slope rocks.. What they really need is a geologist like Ken Darke to spot holes for them. Say what you will, but spotting holes for seven of the largest mines in NA had to have some kind of luck that kept rubbing off. Barker has a crapload of mineral properties that look interesting. All sulphide shows off in valleys far away, that I will guarantee you nobody ever cmaped out at. I know. Any valley I was in in BC, all had to talk to were the birds and the bournonite formations.

On character who always seems brimming with good spirits and confidence is the International Wayside Honcho Callaghan. He is positively irrepressible. And this despite his Cinderalla dream of staring an OP gold mine in BBC with a moribund stock. Got to hand it to him.

Harry Barr storms around the convention with his platinum grin, riding a wave of perpetual exploration.

Hungry for them factoids baby,
Hungry, through and through,
I need them factoids baby,
For a real fine mine to do.

******************

And don't it seem like,
Mines just keep getting harder to find
and mines aren't bringing you the gold that is mined
You just need cash Marcos,
Before you find out it's too late, marc
You had better get cash.

No, but not with stocks marcos.
you just need cash marcos.

And don't it seem like
Mines just keep gettin' harder to find
Oh, you don't need mines, marcos
And all your mines ain't bringin' you peace of mind
You just need cash, marcos
Before you find out it's too late, marcos.
You better get cash.

No, but not with stocks
You just need cash, marcos.

You think you found the answer with that junior
stock you bought last week,
But when it falls out of bed, the world still gets you uptight.
Well there's nothing that you ain't tried
To fill the gaps on the upside,
But when it comes back down,
You know you didn't buy right.

Well you think you're gonna find yourself a little piece of paradise
But it ain't happened yet, so marcos, you better think twice
Don't you see no matter what you do
You'll never buy your way out of blue,
And if you keep on buyin'
You'll have to pay the price

No, you don't need stocks,
To help you face the world each day
Those stocks go nowhere,
I'm gonna help you find yourself another way

Marc, you thought you found the answer on that little junior mine last week,
But when you wake up in the mornin' the world still thinks you're a freak,
Well, here's nothin' that you ain't tried
To fill the empty pockets you tried,
But when the market comes down, Marcos
You know it just ain't right.

And don't it seem like -
Mines just keep gettin' harder to find
Oh, you don't need mines, marcos,
And all your mines ain't bringin' you peace of mind
You just need help, marcos
Before you find out it's too late, marcos,
You better get straight

No, you don't need stocks
To help you face the world each day
Those stocks go nowhere
I'm gonna help you find yourself another way ...
