I am always looking for evidence that I was right about something, which is so
gratifying it is found because I am usually so wrong about everything. So I was
delighted with the new silverminers.com site when I ran across the very
interesting article titled, "Silver Sanitizes Municipal Garbage Trucks" by
Samuel Etris at The Silver Institute.
Its not that being called "human garbage" by my own family so many times
necessarily makes me curious about garbage trucks, but here is a new use for
silver, which makes me even happier that I am buying all this silver!
Anyway, an outfit called TP Technology has come up with "a silver-copper
sanitation system" to clean garbage trucks, which
was interesting from the perspective of a guy, namely me, who thinks that
silver is so insanely cheap in comparison to its wealth of benefits; and its
sudden shortage in supply makes me say that anybody who is NOT buying silver is
some kind of stupid lowlife slug who is, apparently, just waiting for me to
come along and tell them, "Hey! Moron! Buy silver bullion right now, or that
will prove that you are a stupid lowlife slug, and which probably explains why
your kids are stupid and slug-like, too!" just to get the juices really
flowing.
But do they ever thank me? Do they ever say, "Thank you, thank you, thank you,
oh, Wise And Wonderful Mogambo (WAWM) for telling me how stupid I am for not
buying silver and gold right now!"?
No! They do NOT say things like that to me! Instead, they say mean, hurtful
things to me, and they somehow made the faucet in the bathtub start leaking,
drip, drip, drip just to be spiteful and drive me crazy. And now the water
heater is acting weird, too!
In case you were wondering, I also take a keen interest in garbage trucks now
that I am getting older at the same time as my wife and family are saying,
every time they see one, "Hey! Daddy! There's your future hearse! Hahaha!" And
if I ask, "Why would you be so hateful and disrespectful to your dead father or
husband?" They answer, "You know why!" and I have to admit that I can think of
about a million reasons why, and so I don't ask them about it anymore.
The article notes that "Garbage trucks accumulate huge colonies of bacteria,"
which I don't think anyone would dispute if you have ever been in your car
stuck in back of one, in heavy traffic, on a warm day, and everyone in the car
is saying, "Phew! What a stink! Is that you, Mogambo?" and you say, "No! It's
the garbage in truck in front of us that smells so bad!" and then they all
start chanting, "Mogambo stinks! Mogambo stinks!" over and over until you
finally snap, which leads to that whole emergency-room thing and the cops
asking all those questions.
Anyway, those bacteria and those trucks are dangerous to "operators and drivers
who may inhale water droplets infected with maladies such as Legionnaires
Disease", which is bad enough, (but very interesting from a nuisance lawsuit
perspective), but it gets worse when you learn about "Airborne microbes" in
your " heating ventilation and air conditioning systems (HVAC) ducts", which
sounds like another ripe legal area.
The good news is not only that I don't own any public facilities that have
garbage disposal or HVAC liabilities, but also that both of these nightmares
are solvable by silver, which is already in less supply than the demand can
satisfy, and it fixes them both by killing over 99% of the nasty crap that is
in or on them!
And, perhaps even more important from influencing the supply/demand ratio on
the demand side, let's not forget the new silver-zinc batteries, which are
apparently superior in every way to every other battery in the whole world or
something.
As you would expect, none of this means anything at all to me because I am a
really stupid guy, except for the part where the demand for silver is going up
at the same time as the supply of silver is going down, which has made a
profound impression on me.
You do the math because it gives me headaches when I try to do it, but I think
it means to me that you and I should buy some more silver. And if you won't,
then at least I will, and you can wish you had! Hahaha!
