That reasonably accurate summary certainly paints the reality of the situation well.
What is funny, is that by ending it in saying that it is all changing, and going to finally be legit - is exactly he same thing said with each previous chapter in its history.
Nothing is changing, this cycle of false information will continue.
This is a pretty accurate summary by Bald Eagle. The only part missing is that it is because of JJ's foolish and stubborn greed in grabbing up so many contiguous properties on the mountain that we are even here, talking about this. Either this constitutes a story of the extraordinary folly of an obsessed man, or it will make the mining history books as an unparalleled accomplishment.
