LIBERTY: Inflation — the best friend of government
Saturday, January 20, 2007http://www.lewrockwell.com/hornberger/hornberger114.html
The Federal War on Gold
by Jacob G. Hornberger
***Begin Quote***
That’s why inflation has always been the best friend of big spenders in government. Although clearly a fraudulent way to finance government operations, history has proven that the possibility that such fraud will be figured out by an ignorant and trusting citizenry is minute.
***End Quote***
It would appear that saving in gold or silver might be a good strategy for the individual to pursue. To avoid confiscation, you’d have to take the bullion and hide it carefully. Large accumulations might be difficult, but not impossible, to “landscape” away. Under a driveway might be “inconvenient”! But, perhaps under a big barrel planter right, outside the front door, might be a more efficient solution. Also, a “soil vent” that sticks up but doesn’t connect might be an interesting “dead drop”.
All hypothetically of course.

TECHNOLOGY: 7ZIP choice isn’t there
Friday, January 19, 2007PCMechanic tip:
Since most files compress very well and, in turn, are faster to transfer, zipping them up makes sense. The excellent open source program 7-Zip addresses both of the issues above. When 7-Zip is installed with its context menus, you can right click on a file and inside the 7-Zip menu select Compress and Email. The result is an empty mail message with your attachment zipped up. There is no garbage subject line or text, so just fill out your email like normal.
But, I don’t see that choice!?!

PHILOSOPHY: Why blog?
Friday, January 19, 2007Now that I have done the book, the question is why put the effort into “facing life”. This has helped me record things that I’ve seen that were “interesting”. It’s allowed people to look inside my head. But, what has it done for me, versus the time invested? Hmmmm.

TECHNOLOGY: FEEDBLITZ has its uses
Wednesday, January 17, 2007A fellow blogger was surprised when his blog wasn’t updated as he thought it was. Feedblitz sent me his summary and when I clicked to read it, there was nada there. I pinged him and he was surprised. I explained to him how I use feedblitz to (1) confirm that I posted stuff and (2) as a back up and recovery mechanism, in that all blog posts are echoed in my email. Weather he adopts the strategy , or “outsources” checking up on him to me, who knows?
