<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wacky1980, post: 1567421, member: 32383&quot;]i don&#039;t want to diminish the scale of sandy, but i do have to say that i feel the damage caused has just as much to do with the geography of the affected area as it does the scale of the storm. in the case of nyc, the storm surge was 12&#039; high because of the combination of the wind speed/direction <i>and</i> the bottleneck created by the land masses.</p><p><br /></p><p>having said that, i don&#039;t want to get into the middle of the &quot;my storm was bigger!&quot; debate, because i&#039;m not an expert and i don&#039;t have a horse in this race. so please, put your tape measures away guys. </p><p><br /></p><p>now, to get back to the topic, gold started monday morning around $1,713, ticked up a bit tuesday and wednesday, and then dropped off to around $1,677 by close of business friday. i&#039;m no market expert, but that tells me that if there were any effects on the price of gold caused by sandy, they were corrected within 48-72 hours.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
