I have just returned from lolling on the Mississippi River doing some writing. Saw a newspaper on Tuesday and Wednesday but nothing since. Radio doesn't give metals updates. So your post is the first inkling of a march on 325 happening, other than a Confederate ironclad chasing a flotilla of Yankee gunboats up the Mississippi past me.

Just checking now, I see that on Thursday I finished 4th out of 4500 contestants in the monthly stock contest. 2 of 3 players ahead of me have a portfolio heavy in golds. Today my 2 US golds were up but my two African golds in the imaginary portfolio were down a bit more. I still may have gained a place due to the greater market getting whacked.

If gold has a good week next week I could get a prize. (3rd place = $1000). So I am awakened indeed.
