We Hong Kongers, meaning anyone living on Money Pile Hong Kong, or in a slightly diluted manifestation in Freedom Mountain Kowloon, with no ethnic designation ever intended, are believers in few faiths except wealth, no politics unless realpolitiks, no economist save Austrian, no magic but for alchemy, no government if not no government, and no money bar specie. We are in our moment of pending darkness and abysmal despair, standing at the precipice, looking at the dreadful nothing and imagining the awful everything, in need of guidance from above and support from below.

The lights will then brighten, music pickup, arms raised, bodies waving, tears streaming, minds numb, and HE may even answer.
Well, I for one have something not to ask but to tell Soros if I get the chance, possibly by simply passing him a note printed from this …

According to CB's search and interpretation, there is actually a pitifully small amount of gold Uncle Greenspunky can call upon in his fight against right ...

... and given Hong Kong's dollar for dollar peg against the US currency, we can do the trade via official monetary authority switching reserve, sopping up US$ 90 billion in free physical market gold, and then further manipulated as described, led by a gathering of private individuals no longer interested in the potential growth of 3G QCOM IP, followed by the Tom.com masses.
