		<description>&quot;In the US, the results were 38% trust online vs 33% for TV news and 34% newspapers&quot;

Online sources more trusted, except blogs...for some reason :c)

Who do I trust ? Nobody wearing a suit. Pretty much everybody else has the benefit of the doubt for an hour or two.</description>

if you like high-performance Steel, and, c&#039;mon, who doesn&#039;t? you love Moly~

LB, 

the &#039;rare earths&#039;, that&#039;s awesome! that was one thing running through my mind when I was describing Alaska as: more than Polar Bears and Pt. Barrow..

note: ol&#039; 42 is technically a &#039;transition&#039; metal:
http://www.webelements.com/molybdenum/
It has a high elastic modulus, and only tungsten and tantalum, of the more readily available metals, have higher melting points. It is a valuable alloying agent, as it contributes to the hardenability and toughness of quenched and tempered steels. It also improves the strength of steel at high temperatures.

		<description>Leftback, you and Transor Z have made my day with your comments; these are the best remarks i&#039;ve read in a long time:  

&quot;It’s a stock picker’s market. There is more to life than double short ETFs &quot;  LB.

&quot;But it seems to me that the big pointy thing on the right is about four or five times bigger and pointier than any of the other pointy things on there.  That makes me afraid of it and not at all confident that historical data means squat. Transor Z.</description>

		<description>Molybdenum. Essential additive for quality steel production and also finds application in nuclear power.

GMO. Massive gains over the last two days. A knowledge of the periodic table can be useful.
Part owned by Arcelor Mittal and hit a low of 70c.

Molybdenum…?      A bit esoteric for the financial crowd.</description>

		<description>Hmm... wonder if we&#039;ll ever have the fully interactive TBP?

Imagine... a little pop-up video of Barry - ex-communicating Asshats and Trolls, or AT- trading with about nine screens open, or CNBCsucks, blogging while ogling Melissa Francis or Rebecca Jarvis, or dead hobo... ranting. Best of all, Bruce in TN, grilling a burger for leftback.

(OT): Several of my rare metal stocks (GMO, UEC) are up 10-15% today, doesn&#039;t sound like everyone is a commodity bear. World not ending shock, horror!! Apparently the asteroid impact has been postponed.</description>
