Tom; I must agree with some of what Darleen posted. I do not generally get involved in discussions like this, but feel that world history is evolving constantly and can be made to look however we want, depending on which pair of glasses we wear. To me, it is all to easy for us to believe that we (the world in general) have evolved beyond all that has gone on before. Easy because of a series of economic events that lends itself to this perception at this particular time.

But I believe that we are still 'all too human'. There are things that we have not even dreamed of that are to occur - and they need not be advances. How many times have we seen that which was up - now down. In every walk of life. It is all too easy for every generation to suppose itself to have reached some pinnacle. To have advanced. Only to have all dreams crushed when these advances are turned on them in many forms, economic and political. We are just in a lull, waiting for the next storms' approach. Funny thing about life - the more things change - well you know that Tom : - ). All we have is history to guide us. And history tells us that through all this change - gold has endured. Whether it goes to $30,000 is ANOTHER question. Certainly beyond me. Then again, the future always is.
