Dr Copper may not like me saying this but after the crush we will bounce back very fast, not in supply but in PRICE to the copper miners.  The shortages created by the setback will be rewarded by the scarcity of Copper agin and that dosent hurt my feelings when Price goes up to $5.00's like years past.  So in the long run the downside now is somebodys big payday just up the road.
