Crone you got it wrong read again for everyones sake. .
"What percentage of the cost to have the NLC lignite transported here is ECT paying for?"
Its hard to answer this as it likely breaches confidence Glen said.

"And how are you making sure that it does not catch fire knowing that lignite can self combust?"
This is a matter for the shipping company and NLC who packed the container and Im sure they have taken all precausition to avoid spon com. Its also important to note that spon com is signifuicantly reduced due to the small tonnage being transported. We dont rate this risk as a material one for ECT Glen said.

Crone ECTREP said the combusting risk was not material risk to ECT. He said it will be packed the way whoever packs the shipping container packs it. That does not sound like ECT know how it will be packed but it says that they hope it will be packed in a way to avoid combusting.
And your take on this is "ECT rep did mention the costs were shared, and were immaterial ( ie unimportant under the circumstances ), and that NLC would take all the necessary precautions for the shipment of lignite". Wrong 3 times out of 3 Crones. This is why some of us seem to be condescending. Because so many of the answers we get from the company are condescending and incomplete. That makes us want to set the record straight with people like you and JohnB who get on our case for setting the record straight.
Crone Glen said the combustion risk was not material to ECT. Glen did not say that the costs were not material risk. Did you read that right?

To quote your own post Id therefore like to bat it right back to you "You talk like you think you know everything, when in actual fact, you don't, and you only bend what has previously been communicated to suit your own agenda.....and that is to instill doubt in the minds of shareholders ( note..emphasis on shareholders ). You can take back what you said any time that you feel but it is there quoted from Glens words.

Crone what is your take on the biggest problem ECT faces right now, about the chicken and the egg? How do you build a plant when you need money which is usually only thrown at you once you have an off-take agreement - which is normally dependant on having an established plant?
if we tak about this then we are talking about a serious issue, not about who is more patronising or who has agendas. Is the chicken and egg problem a big enough risk that you'd like to add to the solution by talking about it? Talking about it would make it hard for management board and top share holders to sweep under the rug. Would you like them to tackle the biggest issue of all? Lets get talking then and put the frustration aside about who you do and do not want on this forum.
