Awesome post and I love silver... Gold is awesome too!

In fact a while back I went to silver mining country in Montana and saw some really crazy stuff as well as talk to a really crazy silver minor. For a while there silver bumped up and he was working then silver crashed and the mine shut down and the owner of the mine didn't pay for the labor...

The miner ended up with a brand new truck in a barn instead of pay.

Great post!
