<<Markets are for money only.. loose that fact and you'll be trying to help miners, and then your future is just as buried underground as they are. In the past I've had three relatives buried underground all at the same time. Yet the lessons of that day never prevented them from climbing back underground.>> Did they find anything? There is a time to create wealth and time to preserve it, unless you claim to be bigger than market. Making money is much easier task than preserving them. Oh, well, time will tell us.

<<But what is the reason that people risk their lives, live savings, or anything on repeated bad ideas. Why do you you think earthly elements are worthy of your life?>> Y2k spouse to mean "New economy era". Since you are such good on charts please make one for us. Take your beloved CSCO, or NT, the pillars of "new economy" at the highest or lowest in last year, compare with highest or lowest POG and we can argue who had bad outdated ideas. Better yet how many shares my oz. of gold can buy now of these pieces of sh*t. Should I add that your Canadian taxes are being used to support NT. Americans taxpayers supporting their markets on much bigger scale, they have just a hard time to figure that out. I'm not here to discourage you from gambling, if you think you can win, good for you. Keep in mind pool is getting smaller and if you ever wonder how the crocodiles survived millions of years I'll tell you - by digging very deep holes in the banks of rivers, buried themselves, waiting for the drought or disaster to be over. Did I forget to add I like very much reptiles? Regards Marek

Hutch. Just some comments on some of the recent statements you have made. >>> " Markets are for money only.. loose that fact and you'll be trying to help miners, and then your future is just as buried underground as they are. " " Why do you you think earthly elements are worthy of your life? Gold doesn't care if you buy it, lust for it, desire it"<<< It is hard for me to understand how anyone can make statements like this. Do you really believe that you and I and others would be communicating like this if it were not for the courage of early miners who risked life and limb to bring to mankind those " earthly elements " you seem to despise. Do you really think that all this tech stuff would exist without the efforts of our miners?? If all mining stopped today would that be better for the human race, would you feel better?? It is very obvious you have no respect for hard working people whose jobs differ from yours. >>>" True wealth is knowing the price of Water versus the price of Gold."<<< Do you mean that true wealth is knowledge not money :-) Hey maybe someone will find a way to make cars out of water so you can still drive to work when all mining stops. >>>" Stop consuming the idea that gold has desireable properties. It's just a means to the end.... MONEY." Sometimes the things you say seem to make sense until a person really thinks about it. If gold is as you say >>>" It's just a means to the end.... MONEY."<<< I would think that would be a ( desirable correct spelling ) property??? You seem to think that paper money has value, is this somehow different than what people thought years ago when they believed that gold was money and had value?? In the future there may be a new kind of money. Something never thought of to-day so should a person like yourself in the future be considered stupid just because they believe that the old money system is still the best?? The world evolves, things change and sometimes things even go backwards to things that worked better in the past. Your opinions and insults will mean very little to the future world but I suppose they may be hurtful or helpful to some to-day. And of course my opinions are just about as useful. IMHO. When mining stops for earthly elements ( by whatever means it is being conducted ) its cuz the planet is no longer here. Take care Lorne
