Personally I think Double D is one of the few people who makes any sense on this thread. Disclaimer: Long Barrick and short Barrick calls. And sleeping at night. Y2K will be a real sleeper. Have another bottle of champagne.

Some more "crap" for the guy who loves and enjoys his own glibness:- X-Mailer: Allaire ColdFusion Application Server Le Metropole members, >From the Gold-Anti Trust Action Committee: "No one at the Fed or Treasury has had the courtesy to respond to our letter in RollCall of 9 December," Ethan Stoud, GATA. That same Ethan, GATA Committee member and former Federal Treasury/Justice department attorney, says he is considering a "gravamen" - 1. A grievance 2. The part of an accusation that weighs most heavily against the accused 3. The substantial part of a charge or complaint. Ethan is a legendary Texas attorney on the order of "Race Horse Haynes." Our "Ethan Stoud" has made his fame and fortune by suing the Federal Government. For those of you who might doubt this claim, just call his former Federal Reserve Bank associate and GATA Committee member, John Feather of Houston, Texas. GATA is not alone in its concerns about the N.Y. Fed holding DOWN the price of gold. This came to me today from Café member, A. P.: "Thought you might like to hear a short part of a letter I received today from one of my state senators, Harry Reid of Nevada. Nevada is the "Silver State" so his response is in line with his constituents best interest. He was responding to the letter I sent him back in ..I think it was October when the mining convention was taking place and we sent out letters at that time. His letter to me was received today but it was dated November 3rd, and refers to the IMF issue still going on at that time. He writes: "The issue of the Federal Reserve Bank and the Treasury Department involving themselves in the gold market has worried me as well. I have met with former Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin and current Secretary Larry Summers. In addition, I have expressed my concerns about the proposed sale of a portion of the International Monetary Fund's gold reserve. I will keep your views in mind as I continue to monitor this issue" It appears the good Senator Reid is aware and worried about the Fed's intervention in the gold markets and Reid says he is monitoring the event. It's not the strongest affirmation I have ever heard, and I wish he was some what more ardent and involved in his "worried" status, but at least he is aware of the accusations that the Fed is manipulating the price of gold and has mildly confronted the issue with the Secretary of the Treasury. I send this to you with the thought that if GATA needs receptive ears in Washington to help the cause the Nevada delegates might be a good starting point." The Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee feels very strongly about our case and our issues. "If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of the currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and the corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered." Thomas Jefferson I am pleased to announce that on Thursday, December 13 1999 at 10:00PM eastern time, that as GATA chairman and co-founder, I will be joining the Kitco Discussion Group for a one-hour period and will be available to respond to your comments and questions about GATA's open letter to Capitol Hill published in RollCall this week. The letter may be viewed at www.gata.org under "What's New." Registration is required to post messages. The link on the underlined words "registration required" must go to: kitcomm.com Contributions to GATA just reached $124,937 and are going up every day. Thanks to all! One more thing on this early Sunday morning. KEEP THE FAITH! We are going to be on the top of the heap in the months and years to come! The bucks are going to come our way much bigger than what the internet crowd is attaining now. Good for them. I hope they keep it. Just their turn in the roll of things. <A HREF="http://www.LeMetropoleCafe.com/scripts/products.cfm">Le Metropole Cafe</A> All the best, Bill Murphy Le Patron www.LeMetropoleCafe.com
