Since discovering Eric Sprott's social media agency I've been unimpressed by any (or all) precious metals 'news'; I have recently been turning some of my research efforts to the energy sector. I have a few observations that I wanted to share with anyone who will listen (apologies to anyone awaiting the next GLD article installment - it's coming soon ... in the meantime please do check out Costata's new gold series). This is not a research article specifically, it's more of a personal checkpoint, and if I can attract at least a few oil lobby shills denigrating the solar industry then I have achieved my secondary goal.
