<<silver may become more valuable than gold>>

While I've made money in silver by being there slightly
before the big guys hit on this GREAT idea, then selling into the rally they induce with their names, I really doubt Gold will become depressed to the point & there is enough of a rally coming in silver to see that level of win.

The industrial demands for silver are great. Were there even a 14-16X price increase($68-81) there would be a great limiting effect on the broad economy of the entire world(& or we would drive replacement Via technology) & would in-turn drive overall demand back lower.

I think all here will agree even the most bearish forecasts for price of gold are 2-3X the above prices. At some point there might also be some replacement of silver by gold in a few industrial applications - reflective glass & electronics. Yes, I hear of tests underway for 2nd generation Pb electronics solder replacement by a gold alloy with any possible being more than 10 years away - silver solder replacement of Pb is now only 10-18 months off by most informed sources.

disclosure - I've bought back into silver & it's producers.
