Azzler - your rants do more harm to AVZ. Have you considered that you may be wrong?

For example, it sounds like you think that giving up the north and taking the south is an option the current board has. You are mistaken, the current board does not have that option..

If Nigel had the option to deal on the south right now he would take it in a heartbeat. He doesnt. DRC government officials wont even meet with him. That is why he is pushing the ICSID angle, even though the legal merits are questionable.

Let me try and say this another way:

- There is no litigation funding coming

- Even if there was, the prospect of winning at ICSID is extremely low

- The DRC government will not deal with the current Board

- The only option remaining is for AVZ shareholders to select new representation (it can be a small group of AVZ shareholders) and for the new leadership to drop the law suits, swiftly make their way to Kinshasa, meet with government officials, express regret over the racist remarks made against the DRC by a very small (minded) group of shareholders, and highlight AVZ's (you should probably change the name beforehand) keen interest on working with the DRC to develop the southern portion as quickly as possible
