Joe, with all the talk about silver inventory being down, Kodak is still making film and silver solder companies are still rolling out product while the POS remains low. This suggests no silver shortage IMO.

Point taken.........,though I was trying to say something else and wasn't clear.

I meant to say along the lines: "Why don't some influential, 'big boys' say something about the silver situation - if there is a situation!?" Because the world is not 'gonna take notice of Ted Butler - and it hasn't the past several years, as evident from the declining silver price in spite of Butler's proclamations.

I can also very well understand why KODAY won't say anything if the silver inventories are low......BECAUSE THEY'RE PROBABLY TOO BUSY BUYING UP HUGE STOCK-PILES ON THE QUIET, and obviously don't want to raise the cost of their raw-material in the process!

I'm also a firm believer that traditional photographic Film is going to be here for many more years than those who believe that Digital is fast replacing the Film. People who claim that Digital is getting cheaper and affordable and will soon (5-10 years) overtake and override the usage of Film have a mis-conception - they're looking at it from a North American or wealthy European point of view! The rest of the world's population, circa 5 billion, don't consider a $500-$800 digital camera as cheap or affordable, or even practical....and not to mention the other accessories, computer etc.. required with it.
