Hi ild, I do and I also remember my response at the time ... Message 15134944 and as to 'hipo' on the run, at this very moment ... "h. Japan’s manipulated low interest rate policy was judged to be a cause of the bubble, but it is fine for Al to lower interest rate, not at a regular meeting but as a clear effort to prop up some thing we do not as yet know about (so much for transparency, as the big guys treat us all as children)" and the Man just did it again, like a drug addict. On enemies, we should collect as few of them as possible, because they last a lot longer than casual friends. I think, for example, taking on the whole Muslim world is not wise of Israel and the US, especially given that the Muslims account for much of the world and most of its oil, are now weak, divided, and leadership free. Pilotless drones cannot control oil rigs in the desert. The Muslims are rumored to cause so much difficulty now, but the crowds are in control of few countries (Pakistan, etc) imagine what can be done when their time in the sun arrives, with Muslim CNN pumped street crowds in control of Arabian peninsula, Indonesia, Central Asia and New York City. The Russians? They are not done yet, and will never be done, by definition. They got the ways and the means. The Chinese world? Well, they are rumored to account for another good portion of the world. All that matters and is still missing from the picture is India and Europe. As the Americans like to keep reminding the world, maturity takes time; and I, no rights, no wrongs, just is. Meantime, watch the wallet, focus on the money, put all you read in the press into an internally consistent, and logically threading framework, and be ready to change your mind fast. The world is a theatre, and the show will go on, each act must be followed by another. As Peter Sellers once said "I like to watch". We are the generations that will likely live through the most dangerous times this world has ever seen. I think we will make it, but, gad, I like gold and adore platinum, relishing the paper, while worshipping the physical.
