Yeah well now it's slow, that'll change, none of the rest are particularly speedy for very long either, supposed to get their day in the sun but in this modern age it's about an hour and a half before it clouds over, if Andy Warhol was still around he'd be lucky to get a fifteen-second youtube of moderate notoriety, never mind fifteen minutes of fame, he was wildly over-optimistic, those were the days

Still, the good ones will trend, and we know where ktn is going ... eventually ... forgot to mention when posting to Claude, but i recently started watching ckg.v closer as well, definitely want to have at least a few before it does Great Things

Saw your post on the mmg thread, 'new use for zinc', lol ... Zn/Ag batteries have been around a long time, used in aerospace and military stuff where price is no object, but since the silver can be completely reclaimed from them i have wondered if some silverbug group might pick up the idea of using their metal this way while they're waiting for the Crimex to fold ... holding one's breath waiting doesn't seem to be working, lol ... a couple of tonnes of silver efficiently placed in battery would allow you to buy electricity at night when it's cheap, sell it during peak hours at six times the price, in places where they have smart meters and intelligent pricing ... wonder how many watt-hours of juice can be stored per ounce of silver, don't know that, and you'd have to in order to grasp the economics ... but making a business out of it, under Revenue Canada rules you could depreciate the metal at least five per cent per annum, as part of construction c.c.a.? ... every little trick helps
