During the day, the management of the Denver Gold Forum issued a news release censuring the actions Rob McEwen took in using the Forum and his position as Keynote Speaker as a platform to express his disapproval of the actions or non-actions of Goldcorp, and for distributing non-approved literature in the hotel against the rules of the Forum.

As I say, Rob McEwen is brash. It's in his character to be hasty and impatient. But he's not hot-headed or reckless. Rob and I are a bit alike in that if we don't like the rules, we find a way around them when the goal is to improve society. Sometimes that makes enemies.

And when the complaints come in to a person on a mission, it's like water off the duck's back.

But there is always a cost. Remember that.

And, if it it involves you, then be prepared to pay the cost if the mission is that worthwhile.

In Rob's case, I think that mission is very important to us all.
