We have had a strong rebut from Dr Gary Matthews to the Farfel posting
of yesterday. Dr Matthews, whom I know as Doc, was one of the first to

to the chorus, "The I.M.F. should sell some of its gold to help the poor

GOLDBUGS. . . are you angry yet???
I first appeared on the Kitco forum about two years ago. As many of you
