I'm still here and the recent news I find very encouraging.
In uncertain times, all that glisters is a gold standard
by Gillian Tett; The Financial Times
"...the logistics of embracing a new gold standard would be mind-boggling. UBS, for example, calculates that the US reserves of gold are so small, relative to its monetary base, that a price above $6,000 an ounce would be needed to reintroduce a gold standard. To implement that standard in Japan, China and the US, the price would be more than $9,000."
