OK, I now see where you are coming from. I did not understand before. <<... Why should I put my shoulder to the wheel in a manner that will burden my grandchildren and your Coconut with the errors of the past? Here in the US I am facing further loss of civil liberties and the destruction of my wealth>> ... important, yes, definitely. <<So how am I positioned? You will not be surprised to hear that I am heavily into gold and silver, physical and in the form of equities in precious and base metals companies all over the world, as well as energy, in the form of equities in junior companies. Also, I own DAY-UN.TO, a Canadian royalty trust in excellent shape. I also like the juniors in the North Sea>> ... useful context. got it as well, thank you for lifting skirt. <<While I don't believe gold or silver are money per se, they have a season and I believe that season is now ("when all else fails, the world's stock of gold IS the money supply")>> ... we are on the same page. what say you to gold mining shares? <<Your script doesn't address the fundamental issue of what money is and what it has been in history>> ... on this issue, i defer to Berstein's "The Power of Gold" <<I think I am probably a better history student than you in these matters>> ... more than likely, because i only read for casual interest, and in passing at that. <<I am an amateur compared to you when it comes to investing>> ... there are not many professionals, and i am not one. just one of too many on-line unreal tournament death match arena players. cheers, jay
