Sounds good. Like the backing of the US$ to the Fort Knox gold reserves ... [snip>

Hahaha! If the USD was backed with gold from Fort Knox (as if there's any gold in Fort Knox), there wouldn't be so many dollar bank notes.
What a joke: backed with gold from Fort Knox... Cheesy

Not a joke, just a little history. Back in 1900 the Dollar was backed with 1,504632 gr gold and the Swiss Franc until 1973
