Ole 49er, just trying to be funny actually. It seems IMO that few really understand why we need gold. One quick example I'll share is... Y2K real or imagined it does not matter if the world's money was money (ie. gold). Because the "money" would be held in the bank and if every computer in the world failed it would matter little because honest money would still be in place for the "people".

Now since the "system" is run by fine tuning by the fed things will get very interesting in the future. As my grandfather used to say paper is debt and gold is money!
