Yes, they are the same group operating the Centrul Fund of Canada, for the
past 40 years. This is is a gold and silver fund which trades on the AMEX,
under the symbol CEF. Their website is http://www.centralfund.com/ . Last
year they performed as E-Gold's Escrow Agent, counter-signing when bars of
gold were taken out of the E-Gold System.

It seems to me that you're thinking of E-Gold more as a payment system, than
as an internet money. As a money, I would expect a higher confidence level,
than a payment system. I have complete confidence in the owners of E-Gold. I
have been convinced. However, it's certainly understandable that others may
not wish to keep a large amount of e-gold, without more confidence in the
system.
