Richard,
RE:"im, sorry to do this to one who knows so much more about the overall
gold game than I, BUT well DUH. It finally got to Greenspan's ears that
the heads of the IMF & a couple of those elected here & in Europe were
playing the short side. He twisted some arms & boom ....Or so the story
goes... Remember There is one in our White House that is a "futures
genius" - or was!"...

No need to be sorry. Just hard to believe the AG just now discovered this but what you suggest is very possible. Perhaps the pain of 3rd world gold producers helped put an end to it as well...
On the other hand, AG has championed the idea that Y2k is no biggie or a reason to hoard cash or gold. So why make gold look attractive.
