Finallythere, Below is the tail end of the post by Gord Bolton to Zeev of which he speaks of a Hunter Squirrel Tree Gone-Around example to remind us that discussions of a gold standard creates frames of references unique to each side(s) that does not allow a transfer of communication data between senders to arrive without any parity errors since neither side will allow any extra bits send usable for detection & correction. It unlike when neither side listens to the other side, as in this situation the other side always receives and looks at the data sent and always finds errors, and neither side will adapt to the others side point of reference so that error free data is received. Will this ever happen? Yes, when he!! freezes over or the Borg adapt & comply to others. :o) Someone once said that in the deep cold emptyness of outer space half way between Pluto & nearest star no one can hear you scream either because no one else is there next to you or if someone is then between you and them is a vacuum of nothing to continue air pressure waves. ok, you are now saying duh! I understand, and for those still reading lets stay at that place half way between Pluto & nearest star where no one can hear you scream not because of the no air but because lets replace these two people not completely everything except one eyeball for each as the Gord Bolton Hunter Squirrel Tree Gone-Around is too complex, too many points of reference so lets have no close points of reference Pluto and stars too far away to tell each eye of their movement and only the other eye can be used as a reference so now one eye is fixed in space no movement using x-y-z of universe and assume this point is center of universe so if universe is expanding or contracting its x-y-z remains 0,0,0 and now the other eye has movement of an orbit around the other eye now can either eye determine if it is the stationary one or the one in orbit around the other Note, blinking not done since eyelids not there. Also note, movemint of eye not done because...... ya, you guess it, eye muscles not there. My frame of reference can be identified by the following sentence that Gord Bolton has in his post to Zeev. "... unless the country had nothing else of any value." To:Zeev Hed From: Gord Bolton Wednesday, May 30, 2001 A gold standard... does not mean that a country could only print currency in direct correspondance to the amount of gold that it held in the central bank unless of course the country had absolutely nothing else of any value. A gold standard can be used without worshipping gold..... It is simply a discipline imposed by the population on the printers of currency.....
