caling the kettle black......
As I recall you're the onliest person on this site that has ever disputed anything that I posted on "posies", which makes me want to state...."posies" indeed.....
"I know you are but what am I".....but I won't sink that low...nope, won't do it.....
Talked to Dave this morning....poor guy....complaining about broken lawn mowers, and brush cutters, and urinary tracts and trail cameras and about how busy he is.....told me that to save time he's going to shave his head so he won't have to waste time combing his hair, pull the three remaining teeth in his head so he won't have to waste time brushing his teeth anymore and will spend tomorrow at the tatto parlor having his feet, ankles and the lower 6" of his legs tattoe'd black so he can save the time he now spends putting on his socks every morning....he had no solution to the time "lost" passing the current crop of kidney stones but he did mention something about adding a "rockery" to the improvements on the place so there might be some connection there....
Right before he hung up he told me that if I'd tell him exactly when I was going to get there that he'd have the Bear kilt and all I'd have to do would be pose for the picture....seems like an awful lot of work on my part for nothing more than a picture and the skin from a 500 lb. "chocolate" Bear but I do have that desk that I need to get to him so I told him if he'd have the Bear hung in the barn so I could just pull in and unload the desk while posing next to the Bear that I'd consider it....

I tell ya, some guys...you give 'em a wheelbarrow full of gold and they'll complain about how heavy it is. He's gonna have to stop posting all of those pictures of his place and critters if he wants us to believe how tough he has it.

Nice piece on the possible future of China.
Mike, the Pebble project has the potential to greatly harm the "idea" of Alaska since it will be upstream of several major fisheries. There is a 50/50 chance that the project won't happen due to public outcry no matter what promisses are made by the miners. Then again it all depends on who is in power at the state level at the time the final permits are submitted.
Alaska started off in the 1950's as a bunch of Democrats wanting a new beginning with statehood, but the Trans Alaska Pipeline brought in half of the oil field workers from the midwest and in a matter of a few years in the 1970's Alaska changed to forever Republican. Since the Republicans are all about short term money it is more than likely that the mine will go through in the next decade. It is just too much unspent money left in the ground and natural resources are about all Alaska has to offer the world economy that amounts to any serious coin.
And it will all be driven by overseas markets, not the US market as pointed out be Mark. So when the price is right it will go through and the consumer will pay for it in their products and then again with their taxes if the bonding fails.

And speaking of mine cleanups. the above link is for the Red Devil Mercury mine cleanup being done by the BLM. US tax money working hard. And speaking of US tax money working hard I better get off here - lunch is over.

Mike, He has come and gone through Whitehorse. His boss thought it would do him good to leave Victoria at 5:30 am and get to Whitehorse via Van early in the day. (Week ago yesterday. He was in camp on Tues. am to shovel snow for a drill rig. Something about the laborers missing a plane. I'll try to get him to give you a call when he gets his rotation out.
Thanks,
Eric
