Quote of the Day: Gold!

[autographedcat]

"The only scenario I can think of in which it makes sense to stockpile a lot of gold is one where you and your household goods are unexpectedly teleported into the sixteenth century. If you worry a lot about this, then by all means, stockpile gold. But you should also probably take the precaution of stockpiling antibiotics and how-to books on dentistry."
--Megan McArdle

I am a big fan of Eric Flint's Ring of Fire Series which is about a town transported from present day West Virginia to 17th century Germany.
