Good luck, Pezz...somehow I am getting a dejas vu from some of your arguments. If the Mideast states
start demanding their payments in gold (Saddam the little camel boy has already done that) then we DO
have banks here who are short gold positions of huge magnitude, well...those banks might not be just
fine after all.
As an aside, and eschewing ANY presumption of being ANYTHING akin to a thread police I do offer
a personal observation that before some of the newcomers arrived there was certain higher level
of civility that added attraction to this excellent thread. Am I the only one who is disappointed to see
the level of discourse degenerate to some name calling, rather than well thought point counter point debate?
Now anyone who takes that as anything but a humble call to civility is simply trying to pick a fight I don't want.
End of rant...and my comments are inclusive of anyone to whom they might possibly apply, old and new.
I will bet a share of CMGI (which I deem worthless, hence not committing to high stakes) that if the level of
dialogue were to degenerate further we will lose folks like Jay Chen who will get bored, 'nough said.
