284...Your Gold Is Safe With Us, Mint Tells Clients

Reads the headline in the Ottawa Citizen this morning.

Funny that.

I mean, it is nice of them to say so but, as Ian MacLeod writes, the Mint is saying so "To halt a possible 'run' on the gold it safeguards for private businesses...as the investigation continues into as much as $20 million in lost precious metals."

As mentioned previously, this is not the first time the Mint has miscalculated their inventory. Not to mention that employees working out of the mint have used their offices to run various nefarious industries inside the sacred confines.

This should keep the spin doctors on speed dial for a while.
