The price of zinc rose to almost 2800 now it has fallen back to 2700 this is a bit of a blow .the Chinese have always called griffin a darling and they have won awards in the past,I can't see what has changed except trump and the Chinese at loggerheads ,hopefully they will meet soon and sort out there problems,hopefully this will benefit griffin in the long term,the danger now is that there will be no news and the price will drift back,

I bet they find some more just before it
drops below 100,000.

Not a very helpful reply there Zoo.

I believe the discourse started with an
entirely on-topic exploration of whether
the Chinese would regard Griffin as an
Australian company or not, with several
posters putting different points in what
was a complex patchwork of national
identifiers. Then someone decided they
wanted to attack other posters by nit-
picking, point scoring, and outright
misrepresentation, which is where these
things usually go off the rails.

Hi Zooman
No no premium service
Cheers CD

[rose_by_another_name] 08/2/2019 20:26

But Zoom, you did apologise. To the "other
posters". In message 30433. I was suggesting
that you did not need to do that if you
removed the language that you believed would
upset them from your post, and instead conveyed
it to me privately. I would not seek an apology
or be interested in one.

There is no need to sadden innocent bystanders
and then try to soften it with an apology, when
you can avoid the offence in the first place.

[zooman] 08/2/2019 20:05

Sorry CD forgot to get back to you. Do you have premium service as you need that to access it.Zoo

Apart from Zoo, CD and myself no-one has had the pleasure of Burnchat’s posts over many years elsewhere when one could spend an entire weekend trying to interpret one message on Griffins performance. Long may he reign lol

[zooman] 08/2/2019 19:37

Rose, two hopes of me apologising are two fold.Bob Hope and No Hope, you are what you are. Well off to sit by a nice log fire along with a glass of something nice. ;-)Zoo

[rose_by_another_name] 08/2/2019 18:43

Not sure what to make of that, Zoom. Are you
saying you don't believe it, or that you do?

Burnchat- Your message, quite aside from what
you are trying to say, may also convey your
level of literacy. You are accentuating the
garble in this case for effect, of course, but
using correct spelling and good grammar helps
the reader understand what you are saying without
little distractions from the substance, and it
actually gives your words more weight.

[zooman] 08/2/2019 18:04

Rose how unbelievable, talk about conceited and the pure arrogance. I have never referred to someone with those words on a BB but you just take the biscuit . No wonder Sage and CD laughed and walked away from this BB. I apologise to other posters.Zoo

[millwallfan] 08/2/2019 17:24

Wow Burnchat I understood that last post better than most of your cryptic proper English ones lol

Didn't quite follow you re: "pick up other editors,"
but here are some samples of thank-you notes from
writers whose typos I had reported-

"Thanks for this, by the by. Fixed!"

"Thank you - will change now"

"Thank you for alerting us to it."

"Thanks for catching that. The post has been updated.
Have a great day!"

"Thanks so much! Ugh, that is an unfortunate typo."

People who live by their writing are usually happy
to have such help. Expressions of resentment or
annoyance are amateurish, so I seldom bother trying to
help amateurs.

There are a lot of stories about Shakespeare, mostly
apocryphal. Very little is actually known about his
life. There is a great book by Bill Bryson that tries
to sort out the facts.

I didn't say where Ninkov was born. I said
he was Russian, which was probably not correct
in a nationality sense, unless he has dual
citizenship. Maybe he does. People often think
I am American because of the way I speak, but
I was born in the UK. Culturally? Meh.

Anyway, I did not say where he was born. That
is an error and you should stop making it.

Shakespeare's line goes:

"What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. "

So as you see, the rose is Romeo. People
assume that a flower must be feminine, but
in the play, the rose is definitely not
Juliet, if you are associating it with a
character.
