OT Your post was totally off topic. A snippet:

<<The Justice Department did not prosecute the former head of its intelligence division despite his admission to investigators that he disclosed classified information, The Washington Times has learned.
Richard Scruggs, a friend of Attorney General Janet Reno's,...>

No gold at all in them thar words! Just a bunch of blah blah blah that YOU PERSONALLY find fascinating, and have the discourtesy to bloat this GOLD PRICE MONITOR thread with on an extremely frequent basis.

Regarding your thesis that "someday, something" will spark a rise in the POG, that could even justify my posting my son's grades on this thread. He may go to graduate school some day, become the new head of the Federal Reserve, and lobby for a gold-backed dollar! YA NEVER KNOW!!! How ridiculous.

Richard, please respect the fact that the thread has a TOPIC, the threaders have an interest in the TOPIC, and like me most have limited time to peruse who did what to whom regarding Richard Scruggs' alleged press leak some time ago. Like I said, take it elsewhere PLEASE. If you don't, I'll start posting in intricate detail the daily happenings in the life of a 12 year old potential Fed chairman.

OT: The life of Martin Armstrong.

"NEW YORK -- Instead of a pinstriped suit, Martin A. Armstrong is wearing a
prison-issue brown jumpsuit. Instead of expensive leather shoes, he has on blue
canvas shoes, no laces.

Just six months ago, the oft-quoted market forecaster from Princeton, N.J.,
drove a BMW, flew first-class, and stayed in the best hotels. He spent summers
at his $2 million beach house on the Jersey shore.

Now Armstrong, founder of Princeton Economics International, is accused of
committing one of the biggest securities frauds in history. He was sent to prison
Jan. 14 for contempt of court after failing to turn over corporate assets and
records.

In his first in-depth interview since the FBI raided his company in September,
Armstrong talked with The Associated Press about his life from riches to rags.

Armstrong, 50, is no easy character sketch. One minute he's talking about
economic theory, the next minute he says he's the target of a U.S. government
conspiracy. But ultimately what is most striking is his will to get up off the mat
again and again. "

... and more. Quite the wheeler-dealer.
