Gotta admire those Svisse...they sure know how2 use the system & can read a calendar. Isn't every CB that says one thing and then ends up getting their golden asp saved by the Y2K bell!!! Yep, no dummies, those Swiss. Next April Gold Sales...again, when Pigs Fly! Y'know, Alex, the down under bunch seems smarter and smarter in hindsight when they dumped almost their entire reserves in one fell swoop, SILENTLY and then announced a couple years back. Now, there's another Texas hedger one has to at least grudingly admire, yes? Thanks for that Swiss Parliamentary update!! O/49r

$81 Million Dollar Government Study Finds That Certain Anger Management Techniques Don't Work -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WASHINGTON, DC - Government Psychologists studying the effectiveness of anger management techniques have found that some popular methods are ineffective. Topping the list of fruitless techniques is the ever popular 'Count to 10' method. Said one of the psychologists, "We have found that people who rely of the 'Count to 10' method as a means of controlling their anger are only delaying the inevitable by exactly 10 seconds." Other ineffective techniques include.. Imagining that you are a butterfly and that you are fluttering high above whatever is making you angry. Starting a small fire in a trash can. Imagining that the person you are angry with is standing in front of you naked. (This technique is not only ineffective, it may be illegal in some states.) Imagining that your problems are trees and that you are a chain saw. (This technique breaks certain Federal environmental laws and also has little or no effect.) Psychologists who worked on the study recommend consulting a 'Federally Trained and Certified' therapist to help you implement effective anger management techniques. However, be warned that if the therapist believes that your anger has crossed the line and turned into 'hate' that he or she is required by Federal law to report you to the proper authorities.
