Like I've said before: there are more philosophical gains in gold, now, than financial. (VBG)

<(1) The use of cypher codes during war. Fine, until the enemy knows them, then disastrous to use them.>

I agree with you. Heisenberg's Uncertainty principle says basically that if you try to measure one quantity, you inevitably alter the system itself, and therefore can't be certain about other quantities.

<(2) The question about the clock --- which is more accurate, a clock that is slow or a clock that has stopped? Answer. The clock that has stopped. Why? Because the stopped clock is right twice in 24 hours but the slow clock is never correct.>

Just for the sake of argument, what would happen if you "manipulate" both clocks and make them travel at the speed of light? Remember we are talking about a huge manipulation of forces, on the level of say...IMF gold sales :)

Another view of the clock.

I e-mailed Steven J. Williams at geocities.com about TA and how things seem to get muddy at he extreme tops or bottoms. He basically said that there is too much of a focus on the micro level.

In other words, the 2 clocks, one with the right time and one that is a few minutes off, will both still give fairly accurate time if you stand far enough back.
