5% shareholder, which has an option to buy another 5.5%, and that is Calpers, the California Pension Fund.
Calpers and its management are obviously very connected with the elitists or they wouldn't have made that kind of an investment.
The former CEO of Calpers was James Burton, who is taking over operations for the World Gold Council.
It seems very strange to us that Mr. Burton would be taking on his current position especially with his background and his close proximity to the antithesis of gold. We will do more research, but the situation bears watching. We don't want another search and destroy mission.
