Geoff Metcalf and I probably don't agree on a number of issues, but I urge you to visit his website and look around. Because I profess to be INDEPENDENT, I will give his views an honest opportunity to mix and match with mine. I am anxious to listen to one of his webcasts to get a better feel for how (or if) he paints the issues.
