CB,
I think that with regards to gold/silver there is a big change in the public attitude that is just beginning. I am here in South Florida and to be sure there are an inordinate number of gold bugs in these parts (just look up gold auctions on Ebay by location). Some of these folks are already using gold/silver much as they might have used a 6 months CD a decade ago, as a vehicle for saving any cash surplus that might accumulate and a source of funds in a pinch.

There are the usual problems that come with any physical asset, a main worry here being what to do in case a hurricane blows your house away and you wind up in a FEMA trailer.

Give this another few years with high PM prices and this will spread far and wide.
