PA Reb, I totally agree with you. Buy your toys with someone else's money then pay the credit card. With the way things are going the dollar being inflated and all we are probably really getting our money's worth. Stock market's down the hole again, people buying gold and silver to have a hedge against hard times. At this point I'd rather have $1800 (current price per troy oz of gold or thereabouts) of food, gas, and the werewithall to protect what I have. Frank
