victoria approvals granted, page-38

Thanks Sabine. I hope that i am sometimes helpful, but as many of the longer term posters/watchers on this thread would have already figured out, there's a limit to what i can contribute. Most of it is just regurgitating previous articles/ann/info etc.

I've watched the stock like a hawk for a couple of years, and have a substantial holding (most of which is profit), so if anything, i think i have a really good feel for the stock, the technology's development etc. I feel that now i know the complete "context" of every issue regarding the stock and how it all fits together, over time. Given how much money i've got in it, it's the least i can do to help myself.

BUT, and it's a big BUT, i'm no engineer or finance expert. And if CNM are going to fail, it will no doubt be because of an engineering or financial problem!! So there's a massive hole in what i can contribute, that's for sure.

However, I did once have the benefit of dealing with the company - and had access to ottaviano and burns - and i quickly came to the conclusion that if anyone could overcome any hurdle - engineering, financial or other - it would be them. They were so impossibly professional, even compared with other respected organisations I've encountered. i used to be a lawyer in one of the country's biggest law firms (not for long enough to be useful - i hated it!) and it was ultra professional, but even i was blown away by CNM. i had to invest. It does give you peace of mind when you've met the management and come away thinking the way i did. Since then, all of that trust seems to have been proven to be well placed, given the way they have managed to achieve so much politically, financially and technologically.

So, I'm enthusiastic and have faith, but very little independent knowledge or experience on which to draw upon. It's because i know so little, that i try and consume as much info as i can.

So consider my posts with that in mind.
