Robert Shiller's Irrational Exuberance makes some chilling points about how we adjust our frameworks of reference to fit current circumstances

So the frame of reference never ever changes? History, politics, economics, society, technology and culture will always work off the same benchmarks? Is this inscribed on a holy tablet sitting in the British Museum or the Smithsonian?

Can someone please tell me what happened to the gold standard? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Maybe I should run an Altavista search for some clues.......

Life goes on. Periods of dramatic change produce upheaval and volatility. That's my frame of reference.
