Local silver dealer has been cautious when talking about silver going up. All I can say-when asked if silver supply was getting low-is that the U.K. is pretty much out and the U.S. is getting very low. But I really cannot comment-because I just can't.

Fast forward a month later. Son asks if gov't is keeping track of purchased silver and will they charge capital gains when he sells it. His reply-I don't think by the time you decide to turn it in that there will even be anyone there.

Cryptic!
