The Amazing Mr. John Jones - NEC Project Manager for the Smelter Project

Who can you believe these days? That is the 2.4 billion dollar question. Mr. John Jones, the NEC frontman for the smelter project had a lot to say in the Trinidad Guardian report on Aug. 10th. He claims that Alcoa is on its own now when it comes to the Chatham smelter. He claims that the CEC application for the smelter (the same application that Alcoa claims they never filed even though they proudly boasted about filing it on their own web site) was withdrawn because the government is no longer partnering with Alcoa. Wow, this will save tax payers a cool 2.4 billion dollars, yet not even one mention about this in any major newspaper. Isn't this headline news? So who is the John Jones? We wanted to find out and discovered that he co-signed both the CEC application for the smelter and the planned port in Chatham. But when we looked at the signature pages of these two applications, we found that this man had gone a complete personality change in two months. There seem to be at least two John Joneses Please pay close attention to the two signatures on two different CEC Applications below:

The CEC Application for the Alcoa Smelter - Chatham 11/01/05 - "Signed" by John Jones, NEC

The CEC Application for the Port, Chatham 16/03/05 - "Signed" by John Jones, NEC
Does this look like the same person to you? Will the real John Jones please stand up!
