Dave, Now the Mongolians think you are a person who skins cats in many different ways.........you remind them of a certain hun who also had many ways to skin....people. In the third world the silver free photographies are making great inroads...they rent the cameras and get a few printed in color or black and white. Thus the high cost of electronic cameras is spread widely. E-cams are dropping in price at a high rate. Disposable film cameras are the only segment growing in third world countries( as well as others) as the plastic disposable parts cost less than $1. They still need wet chem package processes and use silver, althoug slides use less and are not replaced by e-cams as readily as the print segment and so it will persist, until LCD projectors go as cheap as bulb based slide projectors, at which point they will kill that segment(this is unlikely, so a share will occur) X-ray film and electronic contacts will continue to wane so I see a long slow slide in per capita silver useage countered by a long slow rise in global population. The co-production of silver alongside many metals as copper, zinc, and gold makes that a factor. As Asia recovers and copper/zinc/gold prices rise then byproduct silver will enter the market faster than the ueage will rise. And coinage of silver.....going, going, gone?. Bill
