Yo Mq Been around but busy with business. I have my retirement account heavily loaded in gold ETF in Canada, in GTU I have been riding all the way from 15. I just keep adding. I also have quite a bit of metal buried too. I am addicted to reading the editorials on financialsense.com and although I am not really a "gold bug" I do not trust paper currencies with the insane growth of M3 all over the world, ha OUR M3 no longer published by the Fed. I have become a serious cynic with respect to my government and the demopublicans and republocrats, having read two very well researched and well written books that have opened my eyes, The Empire of Debt by Bonner and Creature from Jekyll Island by Griffin. There is a third short one, The Case Against the Fed by Rothbard. I am Texan by birth and descendant of THE David Crockett and I despise what my government is doing with the economy, the dollar, the NAU, the Mexican illegals and the empire building of this shrub of a president for whom I voted. I despise the McCandyCane AND the high yellow Oreo pretty equally and expect a Great Depression even more imminent with the Fannie Mae Freddie Mac bullshit, and as a physician on the receiving end of payments from Medicare I can not cry that Medicare will break this country BEFORE social security will, I expect by 2011/2012 My other investment also having done very well and expected to do better is CHK, Chesapeake Energy, 95% NG and all onshore domestic, none at sea and none over hated moslem lands. I buy when CEO Aubrey McClendon does. I have also invested heavily in politically incorrect "tools" and of course have for years been a Lifer in NRA. Did I tell everybody back then I read the Saudi subsidized version of the Koran and would kiss the ass of any US Congressman who has. I would love to see a reprise of 1776, but hey that is just me. I did not go away Maurice, I just follow and lurk, once in awhile Jay puts me on the floor laughing and I tell him hi Cheers Jim Black of Austin
