I think this new Find (attached) is worth a read though. It shows a perspective worth considering. Simply put though, it is not worthwhile to put precious metal into play today while trying to define "lawful money". If you keep focusing on the currency instead of the demand it is like trying to form clouds. If you stick to making and recording the demand though, you are likely to eventually get it. Hundreds have that I am aware of.
That is my suggestion. You make your demand - on the backside of your paycheck or on your Signature Card.
