Ann: Government of Mali - Update, page-154

Respectfully, that was not an attack any more than writing "but replacing them at this critical juncture, with the people nominated by the 249D group is absolute lunacy." which implies you are a lunatic if you vote for and that the the people nominated are not good enough.

I respect you for your posts over the years but I also can't help but get the feeling you've received a phone call or two of late.

What you've said relies heavily on 2 assumptions:

1. That management are indeed in deep in discussions with the Mali government. Personally, I doubt it and no longer believe a word these 3 men tell us. They have admitted they have no idea what is going on in Mali and highly doubt they are suddenly starting to now.

2. That the discussions aren't actually with our lawyers and could continue on uninterrupted while the 3 figureheads (who aren't actually doing anything) are swapped in/out.

When the LLL shares come out of escrow, I want someone I trust in charge of them.

I trust the proposed board to distribute them.

I do not trust the incumbents to do so and no one should.
