YES I AGREE IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO. BUT DID HE NOT LEARN FROM THE PERMANENT INJUNCTION? THAT IS LIKE A BIG SLAP ON THE HAND WHEREAS SERVING TIME RAISES BIG QUESTION MARKS. TO GIVE UP HIS PRESIDENCY AT PGM LEAVES ME WONDERING. IF I HAD INVENTED THE PROCESS I AM SURE I WOULD HAVE WANTED A NICE PACKAGE DEAL ESPECIALLY SINCE IT PRODUCES SUCH A LARGE"OPT" FIGURE, SO WE ARE TOLD. WE DON'T KNOW WHAT HIS PERKS ARE, BE THEY A LARGE SALARY AND PERCENTAGE OR EXACTLY WHAT. I NEVER COULD FIND ANYTHING ON PGM OR THE POLARIS MINING CO. THE TRACKS ARE PRETTY WELL COVERED BUT THEN AGAIN I AM NOT MUCH OF A DETECTIVE. I AM FAMILIAR WITH THE FLORENCE AREA AND HE MIGHT BE TOO SEEING AS HOW THE STATE PENITENTIARY IS THERE. THE CLOSEST PRODUCTIVE THING IS THE HECLA MINE JUST SOUTH A BIT. SOMETIMES IT IS HARD TO BREAK OLD HABITS OR GET AWAY FROM OLD PARTNERS. I HOPE HE HAS DONE BOTH! I COULD STAND A LITTLE MORE P.R. PRESS. RICHARD
