furuknap: No, I'm trying to say that the amount of coin a mining operation yields will need to be taken into account now, knowing that the value of a share is likely to drop of revenue from dividends drop.

furuknap: I'm not trying to do so, only find a way to evaluate what the fundamental value of a mining asset is.

furuknap: To the extent of my abilities, it will be. It's not as much a report as a description of the method used to come to the analysis I mentioned previously.

furuknap: truffles: Well, everything you perceive and thus can think creates such a bubble. The difference is whether you are aware of that bubble and whether you have the ability to manipulate it.

furuknap: Magick is far more than daily routine. It is about shaping yourself, your mind, and the environment around you to create a reality that matches what you will.

furuknap: The "Magick" that most people think about involves mysterious and secret rituals with sacrificing goats and whatnot. However, in reality, Magick is much simpler. You wake up and your breath smells like wet dog. Your desired goal is to have a nice breath. Your ritual is to go to the bathroom, but some potion on a brush and rub on your teeth. If you do, your breath smells nice.

furuknap: "The Secret" as far as I've understood, is mostly based on thelemic principles, yes. It's a bastardization as far as my peers have determined it, but I have not read it so I don't know.

furuknap: In Magick, it is actually the same thing. You have a desired goal and you perform some ritual to achieve that goal. If the ritual is done correctly and is the correct ritual, your achieve your goal.

furuknap: Two monitors, two hands, two eyes, two halves of a brain... I was built for dual-tasking :-)

furuknap: truffles, like I said, this isn't really a philosophy forum. Feel free to PM me, though, unless of course everyone is fine with the conversation.

furuknap: Paulo Choelly is a Thelemite :-)

furuknap: truffles, by what you probably mean by "believe in a God", no I don't.

furuknap: That's also a good start :-)

furuknap: There's a difference between "whatever the fuck you please" and "what you will".

furuknap: This isn't a philosophical channel, but if you want to learn, read up on it. It's a pretty fascinating philosphy.

furuknap: That's a good start.

furuknap: You're allowed to do whatever you will, but hating seems somewhat counter productive and thus wouldn't make you much of a Thelemite.

furuknap: I'm talking to you because my statements about AM was a matter of discussion and part of that discussion was the analysis I had made that showed AM had no chance in hell to make back investments at these levels. I said I would publish those numbers but decided as a matter of fairness to instead publish a simplified method for determining it yourself.

furuknap: However, I care about my pride, and I want to be proud of what I do because it is the best I can do. If I do not accomplish that, I have not done my best, which is a strike on my abilities. It's a long, long conversation, though, and whether someone understands that is irrelevant, and I have no need to explain.

furuknap: What is unlikely? That I'm a Thelemite?

furuknap: truffles, I care for myself and myself only. I am a Thelemite, so it is in my nature. I care not for what others think of me, not even what my immediate family thinks of me, much less some random strangers on the interwebs.

furuknap: This is a personal thing, but to me, my integrity is extremely important to me. Even the suggestion from someone that I may be 'talking AM down (or up)' is a taint on my perception of that integrity, which is why I've been quiet in the forums the past few days.

furuknap: I'll explain a slightly simplified method of the one I'm using, because it is easier to understand and doesn't require too much speculation.

furuknap: I've decided that rather than publish my numbers on ASICMiner, I'm going to write a guide on how to evaluate mining companies and their shares. This seems more fair because it will not speak directly to AM (which could be argued is an attempt at price manipulation) while at the same time applies to any mining operation, past, present, or future.
