Hi BAA

Point taken - absolutely.

However, I understand that e-gold is underwritten by physical gold held 
in (LBMA-certified) third-party vaults with transactions involving 
escrow agents.

See:

NB: I have no material interest in e-gold.com whatsoever. Anybody 
wanting to use any service like this must satisfy themselves as to the 
suitability of that service for their situation.
