J, Its just my interpretation of your posts, but it seems that you are more focused on understanding the question that you have asked, than most here do to their questions. If so then I agree that the best way to obtain an answer is to fully develope and expand the question. This method might prevent one from accepting a quick answer from another that already has an answer or solution or type of explaination to a situation that almost but not completely arrived from another question similiar to yours, especially if the answer was generated by one who wishes to become knowned as a guru and sought after by the masses for guideness. Which reminds me, Ron Reece has been away for a long time. Probably found another Mountain Top of discussions that he is engaged in that child's game "King of the Hill" to see who can through mental force knock off the one higher up. Just my impression that too many answers will crowd out the question, and in the worst case a focus becomes on answers that take on a life of their own and the question gets left behind and bites the dust and becomes lost. In this SI gold thread neighborhood is one of a Dutch, and those there do a lot of Wave'ing around 7 or 9 hands, and they have arrived into a twiLight zone where up & down and beginning & end seem to flow out of an inside in. Guess thats whats happens when one takes a view that forces in nature and economics and people are controlled or forced against their will, so manipulation and corruption rule. To me the biggest violators of this are the government's, and very worst case is when they obtain too much power, obtained from the actions of those who obtain too much riches from the control they exercise onto the politicians who then increase their power, and this cycle/circle feeds on itself until it is able to replace the public's wishes and wants with a means to control what the public understands as their wishes and wants. Control Control Control. The USA citizens accept this, and as they feel that something is very wrong, they look to the mainstream media for answers, and sad to say, the mainstream media is now part of that control process that will increase control onto them. Seems that most USA citizens cry out for answers, but without asking the questions. "Something is wrong, does not make sense..." Ineffect, tell me what to do & believe, don't tell me why it has happened, just a quick simple answer that does not find me guilty or responsible. An answer without a question is folly. An answer without knowing the question is dangerous. An answer without a understanding the question is stupid. ... one approach to a gold play also in thinking not so much about dollar strength or the poor state of US and other market fundamentals.... but rather all of these things are really wide open to receive large shocks of one kind or another.... if the world wide plunge protection teams lose control... isn't that the gold play? J ... if excesses are bound to correct themselves... J ... either way ... it will happen.... by orchestration or by taking on a life of its own... J doug doing a JACK's babbling
