Sheila: 
This is a very good article!! I believe everything is ready, as in there opinion Frank, Nova, Delta, I Team, and everyone else I left out; say everything is done we and the world are waiting for the rate to be seen International.

I thank everyone who has spent so much time teaching us about Iraqi currency and how things work in the government. Wisdom is the best tool you can ever have.

Boxman: 
this seems to indicate international trading...wonder how they are handling the transaction side of the ledger..in other words how are "outside" investors able to obtain funds from sales of their Iraqi portfolio...are there conversions to dollars...and at what rates???
