Like Eradicator, I've been hanging around in the cheap seats for a while now - just got too frustrating reading unsubstantiated comments....

...my two cents on this, is that the news release was meant for people "in the know" - they have been processing the scrape they pulled off because they didn't get enough fuel to operate all their equipment, and the stuff was there. They were going to process it sooner rather than later.

My personal opinion is that they knew that people were going to wonder about the bad 3rd quarter results, so they announced the reason early. The 3rd quarter results are supposed to contain the Muskox sample results - maybe they are trying to focus attention on that? My guess anyway, focus attention on something good to make people forget they need to renegotiate their line of credit for next year's operating cash....

...at any rate, certainly a hiccup, and it has certainly made a lot of people fed up. So, is it a buy opportunity, or a bail wake up call?
