Comments on gold from Dow Theory Letters - Richard Russsell 19 May 99 Talking about the Bank of England forthcoming sale announcement - "Is there a plan (gold-philes call it a conspiracy) to keep the price of gold down? Well, I don't think it's a conspiracy; more likely it's just the central bankers believing they can control the value of their paper currencies and mask inflation by selling or threatening to sell gold. And of course gold is the enemy, because you can bankrupt a paper currency, you can manipulate a paper currency, you can do a lot of things with a paper currency - but gold, gold is real, indestructible money, and if a nation's paper currency is in trouble, it always requires more of its depreciating paper to buy an ounce of that darn gold."

OT - Soldiering On In a War of Constraints << NATO also asked for a war with few civilian casualties on the ground, in Kosovo and in the rest of Serbia, the dominant republic in the Yugoslav federation. This demand created the most cumbersome, micromanaged targeting process in history. At the outset, targets were reviewed in all 19 capitals. But now only the countries, mainly the United States and France, that propose that a target be struck and that are deploying the fighters to hit it have authority to review and reject it. >> washingtonpost.com The Kosovo saga continues.

<<Y2K (Year 2000) Czar (Mikhail Gorbachev could be a front runner for this post) >> Oh, that's just geat, Russia has all the technical expertise if a pile of wet noodles. <<Office in Amsterdam, confirming that just one press release will be issued on the first day of the "summit" (June 3).>> Even I (who see a conspiracy under every rock) find little to worry about coming from the single news release. If there will be any problems, one can be assured sweeping proofs, truths, or revelations will not be released this way.
