THC, John Brimelow is the one who knows Brett Kebble. They have been friends for a long time. Regarding Suharto, I agree with you. I met his son about 10 years when I went to Jakarta about some gold and oil business. They are as corrupt and ruthless as you get. I think you will be right about what is going to happen. The rumor about Soros was that he is now anticipating some problems with other hedge funds and has moved into the gold share arena. It is no secret that he is a fan of Newmont and he was reported to be the big buyer yesterday. His name is always thrown around, but this makes a great deal of sense. If so, he certainly can trade that stock. They do not hedge, so if he has turned bullish on gold, that is the buy of the biggies. Also, his tennacles are everywhere. If we are right about this central bank selling coming to an end, or is ending now, he probably would know about this. A few hundred thousand here and there can acquire some pretty good inside information. About the SA stocks and John Brimelow, he is away for holiday, but you can send him an e-mail at jbrimelow@donaldco.com next week and take it from there. He is extremely knowledgeable about the South African shares. Regards, Bill
