Word from Switzerland that Marc Rich was found dead hit the front page of the NY Times...
Marc Rich, Financier and Famous Fugitive, Dies at 78

I have recommended that anyone invested in any kind of commodity should read a book called "Metal Men". You can buy it here:
http://www.amazon.com/Metal-Men-Defrauded-Sought-After-Corporate/dp/006097060X
This is the only book I know of that explains the seedier side of physical commodity trading and market rigging. Not electronic price rigging but Rich dealt in the actual physical commodity realm. President Clinton hired him to help with his market rigging program called "The Strong Dollar Policy". Marc Rich was in charge of finding and delivering the REAL stuff when the paper markets starting getting stressed.
Clinton pardoned Marc Rich for his criminal conduct.
Here's one of my Private Road latest postings related to Marc Rich:

So seeing Marc Rich leave this earth is a happy day for anyone investing in commodities and expecting that some day we will return to a free market system.
I will be taking a bit of vacation over the next two weeks but will check in on occasion.
May the Road you choose be the Right Road.
