eric: I doubt that Clinton goes. As long as the polls are in his favor, I don't think the Senate will remove him. My guess is that the most likely outcome is a finding of some sort of guilt and severe censure. Of course all bets are off if Clinton tries to defend himself and testifies and produces witnesses on his behalf. I have a feeling that this will create an unpredictable situation. His best bet is to try to strike a deal. Given that the public is with him, that is probably best for the country. Live long and prosper, Little joe

Perhaps a President Gore is what is needed to make the price of gold go up. I posted that the (still only proposed) Swiss sale was far less than a 9 month supply of the world gold demand. Gore's pro-environmental stance might well prevent any further mining in the United States. When this supply were taken off line, with only existing demand, price would sky-rocket. As demand increases with every year, due to natural population growth and supply would become shorter, only one thing can happen. That is the "ugly little truth" Hutch & company would prefer not to mention. There are only three reasons gold has gone down in price: 1) demand was reduced through the lies - a) Repeating over and over again by every investment professional the mantra "Gold pays no dividend". b) "filled gold(plated) jewelry sold as solid 2) improved extraction from existing above ground supplies a) ol 49r's and her co-hearts doing an excellent recovery / extraction job b) improved mining 3) Central bank sales (threatened and actual) The problem is that everyone with a brain knows this is a scarce commodity. At some point demand will simply outstrip supply. The good news is: population growth in India will create a demand beyond anything they will be able to stop! It is easier to change investment styles than cultural tastes or religion. the number of mining companies and extraction reduced - If the governmetns of the world will not stop price manipulation on the down side, they can not stop mergers that will lend up-side pressure. central bank sales slowing
