I was alerted to this NY Times article by a high credibility source who advises that this is an important article to read and consider.

Added news note: The Kemp Foundation forum on the Dollar Exchange Rate will be held tomorrow (4-20-17) in Washington D.C. I got the email reply below indicating the forum will be available on video later so I will certainly feature it here.
"The event is being taped and will be on the web afterwards, but it's not streaming live unless C-SPAN shows up unexpectedly. I'll send you the link when it's available."
