Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Thursday was a day of wonderful success for GATA at the

might as well be called quot;prime timequot; -- late morning --
was rousing, drew a big and attentive audience, and was
well received. (I copied it to you last night.)
It was immediately and aptly followed by a brilliant

Not long ago GATA Chairman Bill Murphy was finding
doors barred to him. Now he is being invited as a
speaker to international conferences.
The New Orleans conference was especially important to
us because of its traditional orientation to gold and

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- Another Bank of England
gold auction is in the cards this week, making believers
in the precious metal as rare a find as a Nasdaq bear.
The central bank's auction of 20 tons of the metal Tuesday
is part of a dogged sale program. In the previous auction,
the bank got $280 an ounce, one week after the Sept. 11

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
GATA Chairman Bill Murphy was interviewed live for
about five minutes Saturday morning by the Australian

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Two of our friends recently raised with me by e-mail an issue
that may be on the minds of others.
The first wrote: quot;Has anyone ever thought that when the media
