Richard, thanks for posting The Sunday Telegraph - Martin Armstrong article. My view is conditioned by accepting the fact that gold is under attack, as in a war. Reading the article, Armstrong's fall from grace, I felt an uplifting of spirits, a joy in his demise as a learned and correct one. This, as I am sure others will call me back to show compassion, to express help to a falling one, to let one recover and learn from their mistakes,.....and I say hell no. He fell down, and as he is in a weak and vulnerable position, I say take advantage of this fact and attack him. Crush this person, who has done his best to crush gold. Help him to recover, and he will gather strength and attack you again. Fair fight does not exist when the other side started the fight using unfair methods of attack. The rules were made by the likes of Martin Armstrong, corrupt rules made by them, so now when they are being beaten down, I for one say continue the game with a continuation of their rules, and "kick a man[Armstrong] when he is down". If I am in battle and need someone to watch and protect my backside, and the war/fight is played dirty because the other side initiated it that way, then I will obtain this help either thru a person knowned for a vicious attack manner, or I will accept help from one who wants to fight clean but will fight dirty if the other side does first. but is able to fight dirty under abnormal conditions. doug

Richard - Thank you for posting that piece on Armstrong. Now I don't feel like I'm so crazy after all. As I have posted several times before, I listened to interviews of him over four or five years. Almost nothing that he predicted came to pass, apart from his market top call last year, yet he was treated like a genius, and his opinions revered. I used to scratch my head and wonder why anyone took him seriously. He was also good at making predictions that couldn't be wrong because he would take both sides, based on technical points.
