Sent to my email list. Thanks, Wayne. That includes all the marinas,

Next time some broker tells you what a great investment he's selling,
ask him about Rhodium, a shiny metal used in Catalytic Converters.
Jan 1st 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008
Rhodium $452 $1341 $3006 $5339 $6775 PER OUNCE!
How much longer can we pay for new cars at this rate?
Feb '97 it was $182/oz

It turns out that Archer's boat became disabled in a North Atlantic
winter storm and he was rescued from his life raft by the tanker Omega
Lady Sarah after not eating solid food for 7 days.
