Effects of the silver/gold market from weather events

I'd like to start a new thread on the short-term and long-term affects on the physical gold/silver markets when disaster strikes somewhere in the world in the form of a major weather event; of course, we are all reading about the tsunami in Japan right now.

How does this affect the little guy (that's most of us here)? What do you plan to do differently? Are you going to hoard more/less now, as a result? How does this affect your local coin dealer etc..

Anyway, here's an article from Kitco to get us started.

when you hear the distinct beeping sound, its an imminent earthquake warning, with a map marking the spot of where it will be hitting.


With Japan getting hit by massive earthquakes (NOT AFTERSHOCKS) once every 2 minutes, we might not have much of a Japan to worry about.
They will either be in the Pacific or stuck rebuilding the entire eastern portion of their country.
