Meanwhile, "Oh, no!! The dirty great huge DEPRESSION is over already and it was only a recession." Bad luck Doomsters. Canceling the spendthrift party and laying off the people serving the drinks doesn't mean the end of the world is nigh: guardian.co.uk

As it dawns on the Doomsters that everything isn't going to Hell in a handbasket, they'll have to ditch their gold and go shopping for real things. Happy Meals will soon be served at a US$ depository near you.

Gold has already bounced off the $1000 mark and swarms of people are nabbing their profits before the plunge comes. China did a good job of talking up gold so they could sell some more - the Wayoman probably noticed.

Look how many people are wasting their time digging up gold:
goldsheetlinks.com It's a bigger industry than making moais on Easter Island aka Rapanui and as pointless. There were probably fewer people dead from making moais than die in China's gold mines. Qualcomm's CDMA/OFDM mines are very safe by comparison. Even laying fibre is not too dangerous [though land mines make things problematic - not many land mines in gold mines].

China produces 300 tons of gold a year: chinadaily.com.cn $17 billion a year is real money, even in China. No wonder they don't want the price dropping.
