Writer - that was a good post.

Yes I strongly agree with your observation about Lee's comment that it takes a degree of mental toughness to be in the position they are in and continue forwards towards the goals they are trying to achieve.

A month ago I provided some handy feedback about the very positive body language, glint in the eye, firm handshakes and stuff that were experienced at the August shareholders meeting - and for that matter at all of the (many) meetings I have personally attended. You just can't attend in person and come away without believing these blokes are fair dinkum going nowhere but forward, despite the extraordinary difficulties we all seem to face.

In that light, I completely agree with your stated sentiment that "it would be good if some shareholders and posters on this thread displayed the same mental toughness as the executive, because without it we would be long gone".

That said - I have to say that even someone like myself has been under serious pressure these last few days - what I mean is in this circumstance it 'does' take real mental toughness to hang in (with our own paper losses often very substantial- try $200K+) when the system requires that we are a tad in the dark. At least Lee and the Executive presumably know 'which' white horse saviour/contract is around the corner, so their mental toughness has a degree of control behind it. I'm not complaining - this was always a so-called high risk stock - but I just hope we pull this one out of the bag 'soon' and can later move on to a 'legends' lunch in New York. Heh Heh.
