Krypto wants me to sell some more gold or silver. I'd like to get my gold/silver ratio under 2:1, so will sell some more silver bullion. It's not too useful for civil strife, being heavy to transport compared to its value. Taking a trip to the bank vaults this morning ...
Word of the Day
"Pyrrhonism" - noun [$10] a T. S. Eliot word (can be used upper or lower case)
Pyrrhonism means the philosophy of Pyrrho of Ellis (c. 300 BC) maintaining that certainty of knowledge is unattainable. Compare to "skepticism" meaning a habit of examining evidence and the capacity for delayed decision"
Sentence: (from T. S. Eliot) "Where skepticism is strength, pyrrhonism is weakness: for we need not only the strength to defer a decision, but the strength to make one."
Bunkerman is a skeptic, not a pyrrhonist, that human activities have caused any material global warming: until the cause of multi-hundred year climate change is understood, no one can claim the same effects are not causing today's warmer climate. There were no SUVs around 1,000 years ago to cause the Earth to be warmer then than now.
About Me
- Bunkerman
- I have a pioneer mentality. My wife & I live in the woods - neighbors aren't visible except slightly in winter. Our "bunker" - hehe, really a fine home & barn - has plenty of security. We have four dogs: Krypto (age 9, Kelpie), Ava (age 13, Rat Terrier), Sky (Kelpie, age 5) and Lucky Star (age 1, kelpie). I don't take crap from anyone anymore, having enough resources & gear stocked up to survive in any circumstance. I have three degrees from Harvard including a Ph. D. in a physical science, and an MS in Management from MIT. I worked as an investment banker for about 25 years, mainly in secured finance, at three major Wall Street firms and for the last 17 years with my partners at our own firm. I'm semi-retired now, managing some private corporations and business interests and doing my own trading & investing. This is not to boast, but to give you an idea I know a little about some subjects from experience. The photo is my 1943 M16 half-track which I am restoring. These armored vehicles were ubiquitous in the US Army in World War II and Korea. It's driveable.
