Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

This Reuters story is a few days old but it indicates that
a big fight is brewing in Congress over regulation of
derivatives in the over-the-counter metals markets. How
fascinating that Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan, Treasury
Secretary Paul O'Neill, Senate Banking Committee
ranking member Phil Gramm, and Gramm's wife, Wendy,

Rukeyser ousted from PBS'' Wall Street Week

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

While response to GATA's Chinese initiative has
been overwhelmingly favorable, at least a couple
of our friends complain that we've gone Communist

and readers as individuals throughout the world.

No, GATA hasn''t gone Communist or anti-American
