"In all due respect Simon doesn't give two shits what we want him to do."

The fact that he is showing at two mining conferences in February, three in March and at least one in April seems to belie your assertion. Ever been to one of those conferences? stand down the back and you look over a sea of grey and some blue heads that is the audience: funny looking financiers. Clearly he's trying to reach pretty much the same demographic as hc has: old farts with spare readies. Not sure why Simon Lawson has "thrown the switch to vaudeville" now and not later in the year when he will need to raise capital, probably from those young financiers that bother with the conference circuit.
