"The only reason why gold is expensive is because we all agree that it is. There's no real use for it, except we all agree and abide by the idea that gold costs a certain amount per ounce. As soon as you give people the choice to deviate from it, you have chaos and anarchy. And that's what going on."

--Gene Simmons

I was going to write some long rant about how Gene Simmons is an idiot, but it looks like he went and did the work for me.

uses for gold

UPDATE:

I actually have found a completely USELESS USE (if that makes any sense) for GOLD!

Comments:

Appears that he doesn't understand the concept of supply and demand, either: "We agree and abide by the idea that gold costs a certain amount per ounce" This is only partly right...market forces seem to really do that, more than some arbitrary 'gold price board'. BTW, you and Jenn look like awesome parents in those haloween pics. Be sure to recognize my email has changed - Jenn used my old one.

heh, good luck with the email. Jen still sends me stuff at my email designated for the apple developers mailing list. Her emails get sorted into another folder and sometimes i don't even see she's sent me something.

subject lines read something like
