The gnomes of Zurich? Geez, I'd forgotten all about them, but it's about time to trot them out for a moment in the sun also. The Hunt brothers are gone (I think). Who else controls the price of gold and keeps it in close supply? The Russians! Probably the mafia. Somebody has an inexhaustible supply which they keep dumping when the price goes up. Was it you who posted the interesting story the other day about all gold coming from outer space?

I actually have what I consider a pretty interesting story about the largest gold mine in the world in the jungle just east of Belo Horizonte, Brasil--the third largest city in Brasil. 4 tons of gold came out of that underground mine each year as I recall in the early 20th century. Now part of a large iron mining area which formed the horizon for the city named for its beautiful horizon.
"how 'bout that huge international conspiracy that is keeping the price of gold low ?"
