To stonej...I'd just like to express my appreciation for all the
interesting articles you post in this newsgroup. I read every one.
Where do you find such a diversification?

J. Stone is an excellent soarce of information. A very respected poster.
If coin related news is availible, he will share it with all interested.

Even if it is evil..... The current leader of Zimbabwe was selected as
the #3 worst dictator in the world according to the Parade insert in
last weeks paper. He has whipped out farming and all means of living for
his country. #1 was the guy from Sudan. #2 was the N. Korea guy.

Next time you step out of your house, drop to your knees and kiss the
ground.

Thanks,

I find the information doing google
searchs.

I think inflation is the least of their worries. Survival is probably
more on their mind. Starvation and dehydration due to the drought and
lawlessness is pobaly far worse than the inflation.

BTW, in case everyone is not already aware of it, you can sign up for free
daily Google news digests on any subject or keyword you like. If you tell
them you want to be alerted to worldwide news articles that contain the word
"banknote" you will get a daily email with links to interesting stories.
It's great because you don't have to do anything except click links for
stories that interest you; no need to manually search Google as they do all
the work for you.
