I may not agree with much of Zero Hedges politics, but they don’t pull any punches on the economic future.

Their guest post from Brandon Smith at alt-market.com, while somewhat alarmist about direct impact of the melt-down, has good evidence with the Dry Baltic chart near the end of this piece.

Hmm, maybe Santa can bring me some non-GMO seeds for Xmas.

I was able to download a high-quality version of “The Great Spanish Crash” (“This World” BBC2, 16th Dec 2012) and to watch on TV – I had to show it to my wife.

Here is how I did it:

1- I downloaded and installed the free program BitTorrent (https://www.bittorrent.com)

2- I found a torrent by searching for “The Great Spanish Crash”

3- I let it download slowly over a period of 6 hours.

4- I copied it to USB – my TV can handle files

It is a shame that the BBC – which used to be so good with its “World Service” on short-wave – does not let one download interesting programs.

I recently sold some of my precious metals based on your views which I agree with. However I worry about getting them back in a environment of chaos. There still seems to be lots of retail buyer at auctions ect. and I dont see how pm can go down much without a large stockmarket crash and a rise in interest rates. What do you think

The documentary that you mentioned – “The Great Spanish Collapse” – is now the subject of a ZeroHedge article:

Showing the full, high-definition version, on TV did make an impression on my wife. She was a student when the Russian economy collapsed and depended on her parents to send her food parcels. Of course, the boys on her course swapped their parental food parcels for vodka. 🙂
