Bobby: Speaking of the French and gold reminds me of a quote from Pierre Goubert's book The Course of French History. (WWI era) "Finally, the war cost a great deal, even more in France than elsewhere. Taxes were progressively and heavily increased. The state floated several loans and by skillfull propaganda managed to persuade the most patriotic or most naive citizens to exchange their gold for paper." Governments always try to talk down or confiscate gold in times of impending crisis, from what I read. Nothing changes. Jack

IV, V, IV,? none of the above? all of the above Bobby, do not fail a test-or you may be forced to repeat a year, in French
