Great Richard... Hope you feel better now that you've spent some time investigating the definitional nuances of the English language.

Then as gold has the best temperature and electrical conductivity of any mineral at room temperature state and offers the finest resistance to corrosion I suspect you intended something such as "limited value" due to these signs of utility .

For how long? I know of a company working on high-temperature superconductive polymers that they hope to one day use in computer chips, driving their speeds to exponential levels of greater efficiency.

But that aside, isn't it economically counter-productive to see such a industrially useful metal avoided due to its artificially high cost?? Afterall, 14 years worth of supply is held in dusty storage, eliminated from the economy, thus making all components that require gold more expensive than necessary.

It would be nice if you'd stop hiding behind semantics and some mis-informed version of constitutional interpretation and look squarely at the economics of the matter.

Regards,

Ron
