IT LIVES!!

[Bernard Littau]

Hi James,

I exchanged all of my DM in the last year (may have been Feb '02) just
before a deadline of some sort.  I believe the deadline was for normal banks
handling DM.  I believe there is still a way for you to exchange your DM,
but now it must be done through a particular bank (Die Deutsche Bank??) with
ties to the government.  (Legal tender backed by government and all that :-)

You should get on it though, as I am not sure DM will be exchangeable
forever.

Best,
