Today Tonight

We had the Today Tonight show in today to do a bit on gold. Not sure when it will air. Nigel Moffatt (Treasurer and Depository manager) was interviewed and then I was pulled in to act as a customer for a background shot, so if you see it I was not really buying 2 kilo bars and a 400oz bar, although it would be very nice if I could afford that!

Interesting that a mainstream show wanted to do a segment on gold. It was also interesting that some of the crew were drawn to the gold and wanted to pick up the 400oz bar. It is always great watching people's face when they realise and are amazed at how heavy/dense gold is.

I've been busy following some blogs which have got me thinking, so a thesis on gold, virtualisation, peak oil, and gold as money is in the works.

I've also been following and helping out with the work of the person calculating the basis/forward/future prices for Professor Fekete. I'm trying to work out how to show an animation of the changes in LBMA forward rates - I have got a macro in Excel to do it but no idea how to convert that into something that can work on the web.

I've also been following the comments at Tom Szabo's blog - a debate between the optimists and pessimists about how this is all going to play out.
