Ed,

You are replying to so many posts that you need to start by addressing your post as follows:

@recyug
@pinto
@fitnfam
etc...

You are ripping into so many that no one knows who the blazes you are wishing to berate, and thus, your objection is difficult to respond to as the original question is unknown.

You of course, are entitled to your opinion, aren't we all!!! However, you do yourself no favours in many of your posts.

For example:
1. You state charts are useless but then use one to prove your point. What you mean is that you find no value in charts in pointing to a future direction, but historically they hold value. However, you say this sometimes, and other times you don't - you need to be clear.
2. You constantly whine about the share price but provide very little tangible evidence as to why it should be otherwise other than saying, "it produces gold, it should be appreciating in value?", "gold is up, why is FML not up?". These are not great arguments I am sorry to say. If these are the main reasons you are in FML, then go and find another producer that does climb day in and day out - must be plenty of them.
3. You constantly contort data to support your argument. I can do this too. 3 years ago today, i bought FML and FML only. I bought at 2c on the 27th Nov 2008 and today it is 5.7c. I have made a whopping 185%. How are the rest of you blokes doing. That but the way, was just an example.
4. You ask people to state facts, and you yourself do not follow this motto. For example, you said you feel sorry for Pinto because he has lost so much money. How do you possibly know that he has not accumulated at less than 5.7c average price for his holdings. You said yours is 5.4c, why is it not possible that he has done the same. Irrespective of whether the share price was 10c or not in the past, you are in profit in FML - end of story.

I am sure, well, for those that don't have you on ignore, that your posts and the replies would be much better if you actually contributed to the forum in a positive manner. You can be whinging and still be positive by providing reasons the stock is suffering. If you don't have reasons, then you are flying blind and should consider closing your position. I have reasons i hold such as, i still trust that management are doing the best for shareholders in the long term; FML can be profitable in the future; FML has some fantastic landholdings etc.... and the reason they are down.... XJO down 20%, gold stagnated for past 2 months, AUD fluctuating, investors wary of eurozone etc....

Anyway, have a good rest..
