    OPEN LETTER TO THE CFTC

    February 23, 2011

    Commodities Futures Trading Commission

    3 Lafayette Center

    1155 21st St. NW Washington, DC 50581

    Re: Final Position Limits Letter

    Dear Commissioners:

    Our relationship goes back many years as I have continually voiced my displeasure about the continued fraud and manipulation taking place on the COMEX in gold and especially in SILVER. Here are links to some of my more recent letters I've written you:

    I'm going to make this comment VERY short and to the point unlike my tirades thrown in your direction in the past....

    Fair and appropriate position limits in silver should be NO MORE than 1,500 contracts or 7.5M ounces! The current proposed limit of over 5,000 contracts WILL NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF MANIPULATION IN SILVER! The 1,500 contract limit is the correct amount and is STILL greater than any other current concentration in physical commodities traded on the COMEX.

    Do the right thing...

    FIX THE PROBLEM WITH NO MORE THAN 1,500 CONTRACTS IN SILVER!
