An accurate encapsulation of the dialogue begins (and, to be sure, ends) here.

First, beginning with my pointing out your inability to discern fact from opinion...

Message 19389243

...continuing with the essentially vacant reply, to wit "[y]ou are not wrong in all that you say, and yet, you are not altogether right[...]"

Message 19390873

...after which followed my challenge, "Where am I wrong?"

Message 19390937

...which quite predictably remains unanswered, though not without considerable effort on your part.

Hi Jay. I am hundreds and thousands of posts behind in many streams. The world is booming and I can't keep up even with a few discussions in SI.

I see ACF [just now read his posts, thanks to your link] stating the case for me, saving me time.

A little spark of interest at the mention of silver in conjunction with superconductivity stirred me. Silver is found in conjunction with gold and the production frenzy on gold will increase the unwanted material, silver. The gold economy, where everyone on earth is exploring for gold and filtering it out of oceans etc, will produce a lot of silver, as the production of fuels with low sulphur leaves a mountain of sulphur at refineries to be disposed of other than through vehicle exhaust pipes. Which of course depresses sulphur prices.

But Uncle Al won't let the gold economy compete with his money economy. Pixelated CDMA2000 phragmented photon monetary promises are much more efficient than digging gold and reburying it, which is an insane kind of money.

But silver as both money and material. Hmmm. A bob each way. If gold does become a big deal and metallic money has a re-run, silver would be handy. If not and the Biotelecosmictechdot.com cyber-revolution continues, then silver as a material might be great. Chinese maths running on silver superconductors would take a lot of silver.

PS: I should gloat in passing that Q = 450, G = 372
