Dear Mr. President:
Recently you have expressed an intention to do an audit of the gold at Fort Knox and presumably also the other vaults where the U.S. monetary gold is stored.
If you proceed with this endeavor, you will be misleadingly told by the U.S. Treasury, the owner of the gold, that the metal is annually audited by the Office of Inspector General together with an independent public accountant, KPMG LLP.

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
We are so close to victory now. Gold is all over mainstream financial news organizations now even as they strive not to expose the real reasons for the monetary metal's spectacular rise: the collapse of the derivatives-based gold price suppression system.
Gold price suppression is almost a respectable topic now, even if GATA is still not respectable enough to get mentioned by mainstream financial news organizations even as we pummel them every day with evidence of their dishonesty.

My grandfather used to say, "Don't take any wooden nickels."
The idiom basically meant, "Be careful! Don't get cheated."
Back in the day, small banks and merchants sometimes handed out novelty wooden nickels as promotional items. Of course they had no value. You didn't want to get tricked into taking a wooden nickel instead of real money.
