[QUOTE="InfleXion, post: 1325678, member: 29012"]Forgive me cutting up your post, but it was a lengthy one so I'm just responding to this. :) I agree it's a security risk to let anybody in. It just seems like they could accomplish the task with one camera man, not turning the camera on until inside, one person to handle the metal, probably someone already inside, and one person to validate its authenticity. It doesn't have to be a circus, even if that's what it would most likely end up becoming after all this time. Also agree lack of opening proves nothing, but if it quacks like a duck, walks like a duck, well, it could still be a goose. ;) This last part is where I'm going to diverge. If it doesn't matter, then why does security matter in the first place? I realize that's an extreme reaction, but I would contend it does matter because I believe that we will see money backed by gold in the near future out of necessity when the fiat experiment fails. Maybe the future will prove that idea to be folly, but if it does come to pass we will need every bit of that gold. I sincerely hope they don't plan on selling whatever may be in there.[/QUOTE]
