I learned that from a nice little piece about 9/11 in The Washington Times of all places. The opening line is priceless.
A lingering technical question about the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks still haunts some, and it has political implications: How did 200,000 tons of steel disintegrate and drop in 11 seconds?
A lingering technical question indeed.

So many questions unanswered. So much new evidence unheard.
Based on what I have read a new inquiry is more than warranted and has been for some time.

The New York Times explains that, thanks to the FBI, it has been revealed that when letters containing anthrax were sent to members of Congress and the major media shortly after 9/11, fueling fear of terrorism and a march to war, it was just crazy old government scientist Bruce Ivins sending coded hate mail to his ex-crush.

 LeeBanks Norcross, GA | That's quite a stretch! Philip Zack anyone? I guess it's easier to blame a man who died from a tylenol overdose while in gov't custody.?! |

Time for another lesson. Last time we learned what?
"Hoard your old pennies!" my children reply enthusiastically.
That's exactly right. Since that lesson 10 months ago, those pennies have more than doubled in value and are now worth 220% of their face value. At the time, I told you to keep an eye on nickels, and it is the nickel that is the subject of today's lesson. Does anyone know the metal composition of a nickel? You there, the quiet girl.
"75% copper and 25% nickel."
Very good. Now what is the melt value of a nickel in fiat dollars?
The little girl takes a moment to ponder. "Umm...with copper at $3.31/lb and nickel at $8.51/lb…the weight of a nickel is 5 grams...the copper is worth $0.02738 and the nickel is worth $0.02346," she says thinking aloud. "Melt value is…umm…$.0508."
Very good! And that means it's time to...
"Hoard your nickels!" everybody shouts with perfect comprehension.
Exactly. Because remember children, our sick, oppressive "system" of Federal Reserve Notes is based on coercion and force and nothing more. They must threaten you with guns and dungeons to make you comply. Legal tender laws, tax laws, laws against melting down coins for metal, all serve the same purpose.
Without the ever-present threat of our corrupted government beating, tasering, shooting, imprisoning, and otherwise enforcing the tyranny of fiat money and monetary inflation, the Federal Reserve System would crumble. People don't willingly tithe scumbag banksters and bloated government pigs year after year. They must be forced.
Yet despite this force, and though they may try, there are laws that even the most tyrannical emperors can never overrule. Laws of nature. Laws of mathematics. Laws of human action.
So if you spend your nickel on the fiat market, what are you?
"A slave!!" they all shout.
But if you find a black marketeer to take it at a premium, what are you?
"Free and independent!"
Very good, children. So hoard the hell out of those nickels.
And keep an eye on those newer pennies.

"Gold hit another record high today," will become a tiresome phrase over the coming years. With the all-time high resistance broken, the ceiling is now the floor, the roof is off, and the sky's the limit. This is why I wanted you in gold before the price broke the $1,000 ceiling, ma and pa.
Sadly, now that the yellow metal has broken into quadruple digit territory, psychology will act against the average American. Though most readers of this site will understand that gold isn't high, but rather the fiat dollar is low and destined to be even lower, the masses will look at four digit gold and say, "Gold is high. Why would I buy gold when it's high?"
Well, because the sick, incessant dollar debauchery inherent to our vile Federal Reserve System knows no bounds. That's why.
$1,000 isn't the end of the run, it's the beginning. $5,000 gold is unquestionably in our future. Silver, platinum, palladium, rhodium, copper, zinc, and nickel will reach similar highs. Hell, the whole periodic table will get in on the action.

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama plans to send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan over six months, an accelerated timetable – with an endgame built in – that would have the first Marines there as early as Christmas, a senior administration official told The Associated Press.
With the full complement of new troops expected to be in Afghanistan by next summer...
Obama's Afghanistan Plan: 30,000 Troops, Marines To Be First Wave
