<gold is real money, and the shit in your wallet is not>

That's odd, because all my life, I've used the stuff in my wallet [and lately the pixels on my screen] as the real thing. The only gold I owned I lost at the bottom of a lake in Maine.

I went and looked at gold to see if I could use it as money, but it was like the stuff which fell to the bottom of the lake. Imagine buying a house. I'd have to have 1000 x 1 ounce coins = 30 kg. That's quite a bit to hump around the place. Somebody might even be tempted to steal it from me. The government for example! Not to mention Robin Hood.

The new sector leader is It, before which all will kneel and pay homage. They are doing so in increasing numbers. QUALCOMM is the ringmaster, collecting the entry fee.
