Do you mean Candadian CEF (gold and silver) and TSE:GTU.UN (pure gold play) both run by same family, the Spicers. I have spoken with father and son and have very similar view to theirs on future dangers of world economy. GLD due to be listed on NYSE may not ever make it off the ground because the London bank where yellow was to be stored can't seem to get their act together and there are also tax and dilution issues with GLD as it is now formulated. Hope I am not stating the obvious...now back to packing to go north for me. Good luck guys, especially to those of us dolts who do this part time as opposed to Iso who does it full time

the same politicle correctness would apply to San francesco , Seattle(sedementy deposits inticate that the area is vulnerable to tsunamies), costal florida,and the south shore of long island ny, among others.

I doubt very many homeowners living in those vulnerable areas have no insurance and expect the government to bail them out and rebuild their homes for free. Interesting piece on NPR this morning: brother & sister living blocks away in NO. He's rebuilt his house, she hasn't. He worked in Army for a while so he knew how to work the system and he had insurance on his house so he qualified for government subsidies. She had no insurance and thus doesn't qualify, now waits for someone like Habitat for Humanity or the Salvation Army to fo something for her.
