Do you detect a change in the weather, this Fall? You probably noticed that on Friday (November 2nd) the spot price of gold spiked to close at $806 per ounce, and silver at $14.53. (Both were 28 year highs. Yup, I told you so.) You also probably saw this article: Fed pumps [another] $41 Billion into US financial system. It is now obvious that Helicopter Ben and his Federal Reserve Board of Governors are in full scale panic mode. I should also mention that the very next day after the announcement of this huge injection of liquidity, the New York …
Mr. Rawles; Regarding the steel cut versus rolled oats discussion, I too love the taste of steel cut oats. The easy, low energy way to prepare them is on the McCann’s steel Cut Irish Oatmeal (box, not the can). It is: Boil 4 cups of water. Add 1 cup oatmeal. Stir, cover and leave overnight. The next morning cook over low 9-12 minutes. This is very easy. Using a microwave to re-heat the oatmeal in the morning is even faster. Just my $0.02 worth. Love your site, – Steve in California Hello Mr. Rawles, I was surprised and disappointed …
Mr Rawles, First off, let me start by saying, I loved “Patriots” Kudos to you.

The cans could then be opened, divided into individual portions, [labelled] …

Brian posed this question: question: Would people stay this civil if the same were to take place in Atlanta or another major metropolitan area? o o o For the dreaded worst-case …
“Of liberty I would say that, in the whole plenitude of its extent, it is unobstructed action according to our will. But rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add ‘within the limits of the law,’ because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual.” – Thomas Jefferson . Letter to Isaac H. Tiffany, 1819.
