"The US dollar has lost 97% of its value since 1913." true, and gold costs 60-65 times as much in US dollars as it did in 1913. But, in terms of US money, it only cost about half as much now as it did back then. the purchasing power of 'dollars' and 'money' are quite different.

*The US dollar has lost 97% of its value since 1913.* That is a helluva better than the German Reichsmark! I recall learning it disappeared completely in 1947. uw :>} PS - Danny is coming back for another one month visit in Mid August. He lives in Berlin Zentrum.
