Higher gold, lower dollar, lower 10 year yields from technicians at a well-respected, er, well-known brokerage firm that employs exceptionally handsome male brokers. <g>

KT, I like the old fashioned way. There's just something
instinctually confidence building about titanium (and gold).
Remember how Woody in Sleeper got people to give up the
orgasmatron and enjoy the good old fashioned manual method?
Things that make sense seem to have a way of cycling back...

Now after they get the bugs out of "beaming" say 40 years
after it comes out, I'll gladly let the teamsters have the last
10% of Interstate 95 lane space they aren't using <g>. Until
then, I'd like a titanium Hummer. (left that wide open for ya ;-)

KT - Scientific American "Special Edition" titled The Edge of Physics has a section on where we are re teleportation.

(Oops. Now you know I'm a geek! :-)

Basically, scientists have managed to "beam" subatomic particles using quantum entanglement, but nothing more substantial... yet. It's quite doable in theory, though...
