tekgk, From Boston Globe;
--------------------------------------------------------------------
S. Koreans, answering a call to help their country are turning in their gold. On Monday, more than 45,000 people turned in 7,300 pounds of gold worth $33 million. Enthusiasm grew yesterday, with 88,500 people selling or donating 15,044 pounds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
You can tell this is a third world situation. In most developed countries, wouldn't the government just confiscate it? Maybe that comes later.
