I don't think you should feel like a fool; this company seemed to have legitimate potential, and maybe it still has potential. I took a risk too and am not feeling good about it. I thought the risk was just that they would keep plugging along with the Arizona drilling, and might not find anything. Now I am wondering how serious the drilling has been, or if it's a case where this company is just very flexible, very ready to change direction if they see that the opportunities have changed. I still don't know.
It's just a shame that we didn't put our money into a BHP or something, where they had plenty of proven experience and resources. We gambled on the big dream of a "grand slam", and so far it's not looking good. I'm still not sure that it was a bad gamble though, just one that hasn't paid off yet, and one that at this point isn't looking like it ever will pay off, IMO.
