I emailed him regularly. I could have talked to him via phone (as anyone else), but the man worked non-stop and I didn't want to strain him even more by him having to call me. So I kept it at emails only. He did 30+ hours a week in radio interviews along with 2 weekly newsletters (40+ pages). You could just hear the EXTREME fatigue in his voice regularly. Yet he still persevered! Why? Because he dearly cared for all of us. Mind you he was 70+ and doing all this. I can honestly say, I loved the man dearly. He was old school, genuine, kind, and courageous. Not like the predominant pussies we have today! He was dead on point in everything!!! He liked EXK but not Canarc. I laughed when he said that about Bradford Cooke. FYI, he also really liked (as a speculative play), Hellix Resources - HLLXF. He knew those people personally. And his all time favorite, besides the powerhouse AEM, was Pretium Resources (PVG). Check them out. But for goodness sake, like he always stated, please get as much physical as you can FIRST!
