| A word to the wise, uh, perhaps wealty is the right word? In the depths of the Great Depression the gummint confiscated everyone's gold bullion. And locked out people from access to their safety deposit boxes before they were examined to make sure that no one hid gold in them. Almost hidden on the seventeenth page of yet another Patriot Act law passed recently, our favorite power-mongers re-stated the fact that our favorite government will essentially do the same thing again. So, if you're fortunate enough to have some of that precious metal socked away in the form of bullion it's time to convert it into dollars or diamonds or what have you, you rich bahstages. You have been warned! The Fed is going to cut the prime lending rate again next week, thus increasing the value of gold, platinum, rhodium and palladium. If you have some rhodium that's cluttering your desk, won't you please send it to me, care of this station? Thank you!
