However, If the dinars was to reval, this would be very good motivation as i would not be wanting to wander the streets with this new found wealth. The citizens may handle it pretty much the way we would handle it here in the good ole USA and keep the money secure. I am sure most here would not even bother picking up 7 bucks, I wouldn't, would you? I don't think i would even waste the time if i was poor and desperate. Especially when much more money can be made doing other things. Perhaps this is why there is not much excitement in the streets from the people...I bet we sure will hear about it if they had a reval and then give them the 10k dinars.

how dare you use common sense!!!!

why not just tap a well in your own yard and peddle your oil? oh yeah, they cant afford to buy the houses yet that are sittin on that sandpile floatin on oil.

and these arent stupid people who arent aware of their resources and how much they should be worth and how they should be living due to their birthrite of being iraqi. the most educated in the middle east.

They know how the people in other wealthy countries live . . . and that is what the Kurds, [@ least], want for their people . . .

BTW / the fact that the Kurds want to do their own deals / does not mean that they do not want to share the wealth with all Iragi's . . .

SGS's Mom is doing a bit better / out of IC unit . . . Sus will remain in Kansas for awhile . . .

PS: I have now hobbled into 6 BOA branches in South Eastern PA / Nobody knows nothin about the *Dinar* or November 13th . . . HUMMM . . . I have yet to press any of them to call NY / or their N.C. or LA offices . . .

I am considering opening an account for one of my businesses / @ my local BOA branch . . . then it will be a bit easier to ask to see their foreign currency book, [if the local small branches even have them], & get them to make a few calls . . .

Best . . . RR . . .

COME ON REVAL NEED MY HANDS TO DO THIS AGAIN

I hope your mother, is doing Okay, mine is the patron saint of perpetual guilt, but I love her anyway.
As of last night Ompus had another conference call and even they are starting to jump on the proverbial bandwagon!!! Dan the CEO of Ompus believes that they will start processing those ten thousand dollar checks on monday, the sixth of november and we should see the reval by his speculation, the 13th to 15th of Nov. What really shook me was all along they have been saying that a low reval should be expected like .33 to .70 but now they are saying 1.40 so this is heartening. They also said that they have confirmed that oil deals have already been started with foreign countries, even though HCL that they know of has yet to be enacted. more reason to believe a high reval is in order.So if I knew how to make those big woot signs that you all are famous for I would do it but I dont so.../
WOOT WOOT WOOOT................ETC

Page won't load . . . maybe down for maint. . . .

I'm not saying they don't show an exchange rate / I just have yet to find a branch anywhere near me that is willing to sell . . . or buy IQD . . .

They're all polite & use the "maybe in the future - when it's traded" line, & have no idea about anything changing on Nov. 13th . . . .
