C2, I was on Occupy Coronation Park duty yesterday with my tea trolley, pot of tea, internet connection from across the road [in the Zenbu office], portable landline, a couple of cellphones, and big straw hat to protect me from the intense sunlight.

A bloke was curious about what I was doing. I do literally have a sign saying "Occupy Coronation Park" with a Zenbu sticker too. He came over to ask what I was doing and thinking.

He was decorated in very heavy gold ornamentation. He had a bright red Mercedes two seat open top car. He said he's now living north of the town of Coromandel in readiness for the collapse and sociological carnage as everything goes haywire. He is an American of some variety with a mixed trans-Atlantic accent.

I was of course interrogating him and he did indeed have knowledge and numbers to back up his commentary but I did have to correct him on an earlier gold price. He said he knows the reserve bank bosses, and others in the main financial institutions and explained what's going on with special drawing rights and discussions with a view to an emergency establishment of a new world currency as the financial relativity theory implosion beyond the event horizon into black hole territory takes place likely sooner than later.

He said he has been 98% in gold for years [like a decade]. He was a currency trader of some sort for quite a while. He was 50ish so not a newbie to the world.

We had a discussion for about 20 minutes until he had to go because his wife was sick of waiting in the car nearby.

TJ would have been beside himself with excitement. I later saw the car parked along Pilot Bay when I had finished Occupy Coronation Park duty and wagged work to play with a couple of grand children and a daughter. Life is lovely while we wait to see. I explained that he will lose his shirt on gold but not yet and he could well see $10,000 an ounce as predicted by me about 8 years ago [in the event of such financial black holiness] and $2,000 in the event of serious financial relativity theory hyperspeed as experienced over the last 4 years.

It was fun to meet a proponent of all the Atavistic Aztecs expect, living the life. He thinks NZ should do okay for food though Auckland could be quite a mess. Hence he stays clear of there, living in beautiful Coromandel area and obviously joy-riding around the Bay of Plenty.

Various people stop and chat and most are amused at "Occupy Coronation Park". One guy was earnestly explaining that my strategy was wrong as one person was not convincing for the Occupy movement. Life's a lot of fun.
