>>I was so pleased that Gao Zhan was released, that I bought something made in China. << Positive reinforcement, right, CB? Good. Still,I'd rather keep them on a short leash - buying two organizers was way too forthcoming. Charlene would disapprove... dj

Hi CB, "Friends come and go, but enemies are forever" - American fortune cookie, 1975. Japan should have thought through the problem before they had decided to wake up their neighbors;0) ... and now for the bad news ... the organizers, if they are electronic, will fail in a few weeks time, when the batteries need changing. I would imagine you are talking about a plastic filing organizer of some sort, hopefully. Try the panda gold coins next time, the quality there tends to be more consistent :0) I just read through the last of the postings by West, Mark, Tradermike, DJ and Max. I had figured that the bunch of us would scare each other and our shadows silly, and I was not wrong, at least not in my own case. While on the plane at noontime, I will have to give some thought to the issue of 'maximum allowable' allocation to physical gold, Swiss Francs, Euro and whatever else. Maurice is right that high cash allocation is not the whole answer the whole time. He may be wrong on stock allocation (Maurice, I am being polite) being the whole answer the whole time. I am off for 4 days to yonderland starting today for meetings on yet another power plant. I will be at a Board Meeting at a possibly CNBC deprived area near Hangzhou, without I-net access (meetings are often at these sort of info-deprived hideaways), and so, to all of the thread, please do not allow Greenspan take any of my goodies away during this info-blackout time. Would not like to see the indices make a 3 for 2 stock split and dollar tumble 15% so quickly. So, later. BTW ... m-tuku.com travelchinaguide.com Chugs, Jay
