Gary, I have quickly jumped onto the Band Wagon about the way the person called Friend of Another described the very recent changes that were made public by those Central Banks in regards to physical gold, and most importantly, that these countries will link their paper money to physical gold as outlined in FOA's article. Upfront I have to say that I do not know who FOA is, and was not able to find that article at the web site given as source. Also, as I am not educated in business, finance, investment, economics and the precious metals markets, I would not be able to determine the truth or falsehood, or even the risk and benefits of this article, but only go with the flow I have joined and note that this FOA article was forth as an important events thru the GATA organization. There has been many comments and insight presented on this thread and in the news media on what caused those Central banks to make that gold announcement, and related to this topic of gold on this thread, the poster Double D has mentioned that GATA has done nothing except identify everything against a higher price of gold as manipulation or collusion or just plain the evil and bad. d has his head stuck inside a dirt hole like that big bird the ostrich that figures that out of sight will make the bad hedging of Barrick and the Bill Murphy of GATA both be reduced to non happenings. So as d says GATA has had no effect, and is not related to any changes in the gold market since the Central Banks decided their new postion thru their own, I say to d that Sorry d but nope as d is wrong. As for Alan Greenspan and all the rest of the movers and shakers that have either private or government functions, they all knew and know how the system works, that corruption and dumbness and stupidity is common place in the forces that control world events, and only when they cannot Cover-Up and StoneWall and use Force, will they act rational. And when do they act rational, I say when someone like Bill Murphy stands up and presents the Truth for all to see. Then these people will know that they are at risk if the same old same old ways are continued, and thusly be exposed and be pee'ed on by the masses they have double crossed and lied to. So maybe this new gold approach by the official people currently in charge in those nations has happened 99% because of GATA. Bill Murphy supplied Juice to the GATA Light Bulb of Truth, and now all those non gold bugs are running for the dark corners. Doug
