Hey, we could go on Niven's Roentgen Standard, and then your coins would dry themselves off -- in fact, they'd do so MORE quickly if you just...
And to get back to your original question, "what is the government doing about [the excessive cost of making nickels]"... I think the direct...
Get the right lobbyists behind it, and that won't matter. Just look at the amazing self-destructing zinc cents. The people forcing decisions on...

Liar's poker?
Separate names with a comma.
