"Basserdan:...I enjoyed our discourse....and also appreciate critique...any further comments?" ------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Sherlock...
I initially thought so, but your cleverly crafted response didn't leave me much room to make any points of my own. <g>
Simply put, I agreed with the viability of your response and wisely chose to let it stand on it's own merit, instead of trying to shine it up a bit with some, as Zeev would say, excessive verbiage.
May I offer a substitute from a far more astute person than I'll ever be.....? ==============================================================

Another thing i learned from your posts Dan, is that it's possible to post directly the images from the pacific.commerce.ubc site ... didn't know that ... not sure this is how, but here goes ... [my theory du jour being that the PoG in loonies and/or euros is more significant than in usd, which is having some seigneurage air let out of it recently, that's a currency-specific thing and does not speak much to the overall value of gold, maybe [?] .... it's just that we quote gold in usd so much [why is that!] [really we should quote usd in gold, wouldn't that make a lot more sense-g-] .... ok, here's gold in loonies, then euros -
... it can be seen from these that gold in loonies is back to where it was over the fall, no gain at all really, and in euros it has fallen ... so can we say that gold is 'up'? - i don't think so .... when it sustains a rise in all three fiat productions, then it'll be 'up' .... here is that pacific.commerce plot page - http://pacific.commerce.ubc.ca/xr/plot.html
<EDIT> GRRRRRR! The charts didn't transfer. Kindly click the link to Marcos' IHub post link to see them. Sorry about that. Now I suppose I owe you again? <VBG>
