allowed strategic metal mines in the US to be sold to Russian interests: gcache of the article

For the first time in 24 years, on March 1, platinum traded above $900 an ounce, having doubled its price over the past 18 months. This event bespeaks of the conspiracy that the Bush Regime and the Russian government have entered, in order to force the price of platinum higher. Russia, it should be noted, produces 3/5 of the world's platinum, and it is a substantial export earner for Russia. And this is how the conspiracy has been orchestrated...

The Bush-Cheney Regime has passed a series of discreet laws regarding the mining industry. These laws have acted to discourage platinum production in the United States. It's often forgotten that the United States, although not a large platinum producer, accounts for about 10% of the world's platinum production. To further aid this conspiracy, last year the Bush Cheney Regime unlawfully allowed a Russian company Norilsk secretly controlled by the Russian government to purchase Stillwater Mining which is the largest platinum producer in the United States. In fact it mines 90% of all US platinum. Stillwater is headquartered in Denver and its primary mining operations are in Montana. The company does both hard rock and leach platinum mining.

After they bought it, the Russians closed down Stillwater mining operations, using the lie that the market was over saturated with platinum. The Russian government had been withholding the metal in order to force up prices.

Re:Tanks for the Memories by Doc+Ruby · 2005-06-26 13:25 · Score: 1 · on Archiving Digital History at the NARA

A quick search finds barcodes storing 26.3KB per square inch, much denser than the "small novel" claimed in your source (which would be 38 pages at 1MB). No surprise, the average word is 6 letters long, yet their numbers claim it takes 10 bytes to represent them. Of course, compressing a novel, or a government archive, takes a lot less than 6 bytes per word. And barcodes are far from the densest paper archive that I can think of, and I'm not even in the business. Archiving images of typed paper documents typically compresses 1MB to 35KB, without even using "codebook" encoding to reduce letters to 6bits - the standard 250 word page reduces to about 1KB of text, not 1MB, in binary, which is then compressed, up to 40:1. So we're talking about many orders of magnitude smaller media requirements than those numbers you cited guesstimate. Let's call it 100K:1, and pages have two sides. Now we're talking about 100B pages. Through 2022, which is 17 years. 50K trees, your numbers say, paper 1M "short novels", which would be about 100 pages long, but not A4 sized - let's say 0.5 A4 sheets: 50B sheets. Since 500 sheet reams weigh 6lbs, and 17 trees make a a ton of paper, that's 166.7K sheets per tree. Which is 300K trees. New Hampshire alone accounts for about 100K trees harvested per year, which is 1.7M trees, about six times the trees needed for the maximum archive estimate during its 17 years. And the pages don't have to be trees: US recycling recovers about 50M tons of paper per year, which is 40% of the paper needed.

It's still a lot of paper. But we'll get it back, recycled, when we switch to the online archival storage, rather than the near-line optical scanning. It's also expensive. But the US economy will produce over $600T in the next 17 years. That's almost $2500:MB to be archived. Seems like we can afford it.

On a side not this is also related to Bush's bluring of seperation of church and state by opening Tax payers money to "Faith based initiatives".

Like it or not this leaves it up to the state to pass the law. It removes a federal road block.
