I am going with the 1:1 theory. I just think the people of Iraq would revolt if it were anything less! jamadude99

Bloomberg: IMF Chief Says USD May Lose Currency Reserve Status Amid Debt-Limit Crisis By Karl Lester M. Yap - Jul 29, 2011 12:13 AM ET . International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde said the dollar’s standing as the world’s main reserve currency may be diminished as U.S. lawmakers fail to lift the nation’s debt limit. The U.S. currency has had an “exorbitant privilege because it was the reserve currency that most central banks had,” Lagarde said in an interview on PBS’s “Newshour” yesterday. “If there was a dent in this exorbitant privilege and the confidence that most people have towards the dollar, it would probably entail a decline of the dollar relative to other currencies.” Read More: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-07-29/lagarde-says-u-s-dollar-may-lose-privilege-amid-debt-crisis.html I apologize if this has already been posted! I have e-mailed all of my reps and senators in DC, and got a reply from one that doesn't even relate to my message--just a staff form letter to send back!

I enjoyed your story about the bank teller. I don't care where she got the news, it is positive just to hear. jamadude99

Thanks, Possum. Your location is the Trinity River, so I am guessing that is in East Texas. Having family in Timpson, I know the region. jamadude99

Thank you Adam for everything you bring to us in the VIP section. I believe that you work very diligently to give us the best information possible, and wish you and everyone the best concerning the RV. jamadude99

Please verify me, Adam. I don't have a way to get a picture on the computer. jamadude99

Thanks Ron! I would be happy with 86-cents. But, Maliki's next few days for the ministries has happened over and over so I don't know who to believe anymore, but I don't believe any Iraqi! jamadude99

The problem is that Iraqis can't do math. Regular math does not translate. So, they don't know 10 days from any other days! jamadude99

I have decided that anything with Maliki's name attached is just about at meaningful as the news concerning a LOP. I don't think we will know anything until the last second it happens, as they have contradicting articles on the same topics daily. Hey, it's Iraq! Go RV! jamadude99

I might be mistaken, but I think that the three zeros was removing the larger denominations from the circulation--as has been discussed many times here at DV. I saw a picture of someone holding 10,000 notes with this same story, but don't have a link. I think it was on Currency News Hound today!

CKH, thanks for the link. I go along more with the info in that article. I don't think there will be a lop. Iraqi citizens will be confused enough when the value changes, much less than with a lop. JMO! jamadude99

Thank you for the post! I think with all the mess in our own congress, that the big boys want somebody to do something. So, they picked Maliki! Go RV!

Thank you for the post. This story just tears at one's heart strings. Our military men and women are the world's greatest, and we wouldn't be free to have this website if it weren't for the fallen men and women in the history of the military. jamadude99

Thanks for the post! I am trying to be calm and positive, as I think we are closer than ever to the seated GOI. I would hope that a seated GOI will trigger the RV, but it wouldn't be the first time that something blew the train off the track. jamadude99

Thank you, Mr. Rich. We all need to get on our congress and senate and insist that they get on the band wagon for clean natural gas power! jamadude99
