[null and void]

Have you been following gold prices the past week?

Not really, but I understand they are going up...

Gold closed today at $334.10, a two-year high. All the gold mining stocks are way up too.

I keep hoping gold will hit the $400/oz mark and all the exploration companies will start hiring again. There aren't a lot of experienced exploration geos. left anymore...most are working at Home Depot or have given up and have gone on to better things. The universities are all closing down their mining schools or shoving them in with the civil engineering departments, so maybe there will be a need for old geezers who know how to find gold?
