Thought you had me there, didn't you Alex, with your trick post. Not true how Ron Reece has potatoed me as being a half dumb wit, as I'm 1/2 of that, leaving 3/4 for normal use while at the same time I'm able to credit that other 1/4 to keep full membership and status as an official gata nut. Try as he may, Ron Reece, to remove from me and replace with stuff from the dark corners of life. I'm NO Potato Head, Ron. So Alex, sewed me up a dunce hat to wear did you, and already removed the table from the corner for me to stand with back to life. But you did good Alex, as this info would have passed on by the GATA man Bill 4 sure. All Bill would have been able to do as this future event passed him by would be able to say "bye bye".

Bill wonders aWhy, as GATA has the winning score play already done, and the other side with 3 seconds left has no more gold to throw, no more Central Banks with golden balls to be used, so how Bill asks can they have the look of success of a win ??? GATA lost, other side Wins. Front page News ================ Over Mountain Down Valley Into the Lake Found - A Zillion tonnes of physical gold. Enought to replace all paper gold sheets.
