great post but if I read it correctly..the implications are that it doesn't matter whether or not there is a gold standard or basket of commodities but rather honest bankers :-)

<<So how is Britain funding their war effort anyway? My bet is that their gold is already gone and that they are doing some financial wizardry at the moment to cover it up. It is more likely that they have already made their sales (or otherwise committed it)and have arranged financing so that they announce they are selling when they are really buying it back cheaper at lower prices and will sell it later after the impact of their sale announcement (and actual buying)has already past.>> Ask a Congress person and a Senator. Better yet, ask if anyone has audited the IMF gold that is to be sold. Is it even there? Best idea: ask everyone on every banking sub-committee! Get in their faces!
