o.t you forgot to mention if they mentioned the cancer issue on topic.. it just seems again and again that the gold market has to be looked at as part of the whole picture.. how much money is on side lines has Japan really started a recovery or is it foreign traders and government spending by Japanese seems as if other asian countries have turned..does the world need Japan to turn also if labor market is so very tight..how come wage increase was so miniscule and hiring half of what was expected if greenspan was scared about the market before..how did he feel after that raise on friday why would deep pocketed traders want the gold market to rise which would be contrary indicator to rest of market, when they are still able to make tons of money our time will come but also the internet is multiplying faster than any metaphor I can think of.. how does that fit into the cycle -there was nothing like that in the late twenties right?

Doug, I am not sure how your coal/gas flame question relates to gold, but here is my take. In a gas flame you simply (try) to transfer the combustion energy directly to the meat, in a coal fire, the coal's temperature increases to about 800 to 100 C (depending how much air is drawn in), as a result the coal becomes a radiator in the infrared which penetrates better (thus faster cooking?) than the heat of combustion of gas that needs to be conducted through the meat. You get both radiation heating and normal heat trnsfer (conductivity etc.) with coal and only some heat transfer mechanism in gas. If you use the gas to heat a piece of black iron (or plates_ you should get similar results. Jenn Air has an electrical in house grill that heat such pieces of iron to red heat. Zeev
