I just saw the last "Reality Check" on Fox News. They say that the price of Oil is that high because the prices are tied to Gold - not Dollar. So whenever the price of Gold rises, the less Gas you can buy for your Dollars. Is that correct? The short report in question: S8WReKlUFP4

If gold is such a good investment... And this is because it is inherently a store of wealth... And this is not part of the Greater Fool* idea... Why are the people who are investing in it shouting from the mountain tops about how good an investment gold is? That just drives up the price by...

His Greatness the Krugman posted this to explain his "aliens" talk connection to traditional Keynesian explanation (by Keynes himself) of how to stimulate downtrotten economy even with a "useless" activity. http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/08/24/coalmines-and-aliens/ I think it's an...

Gold obtained by mining has copper and silver impurities. Gold of higher purity can be made through the photoneutron process:[citation needed] Mercury 198 + 6.8MeV gamma ray --> 1 neutron + Mercury 197 (half-life 2.7 days --> Gold 197 + 1 positron) Sorry I can’t post the link, I’m new...

As I'm sure you're all aware in the recent Doom and Gloom of the recession everybody has been advocating gold as the only safe investment. Now I understand the counter argument that in a real financial collapse gold bullion stacked in your bunker is going to be pretty useless (maybe throw it at...

Impressive! That's an annual inflation rate of 2.2 percent despite a tremendous rise in energy prices. On the one hand, I feel that just has to be wrong. But that would explain why $3.00 a gallon didn't causing much of a drop in demand the second time around, because most people can afford the...

I'm trying to do an article on monatomic gold, and there's just too much woo for one man. It breaks down into (1) Health claims. (2) Raiders of the Lost Ark style pseudohistory. (3) Physics / chemistry claims. Part three has me stumped. Here is the inventor's account of his discovery. This...

I couldn't find a thread about this already, so I thought I'd start one :) A lion in Rome's Bioparco zoo has had 50 gold pellets inserted into its body in order to help its arthritis. What set alarm bells ringing was that it's been described as an `alternative' therapy based on acupuncture...

In my newspaper yesterday (Politiken, a Danish newspaper) there was a short notice that "for the first time" an alternative medicine had been proven effective in a double-blind test. Apparently it consisted of some kind of gold dust in a solution that was used as a pain relief in the shoulder...

The Australian competitors in the Olympic games get a lot of government support. I'd say, on a per capita basis, we are doing pretty well. For a country of only ~20 million, we have 16 Gold and 43 medals overall. Social-Democracy! Social-Democracy! Social-Democracy!

OK, so i'm looking at another message board, and someone has posed messages about monatomic gold and making planes invisible. The quote is: "I may be wrong but I think this is the plane which has its wing edges coated with monatomic (recently discovered to be diatomic) gold atoms. This has the...
