Welcome aboard -- I look forward to your comments in our chemistry-related threads!
Welcome to the world of commodities. Gold is somewhat different (silver, too, to a lesser extent) because of what I think of as religious...
79 dollars sounds like Franklin Mint original retail. It's extremely unlikely they'll ever go for that again. Here's someone selling them on eBay...
Rats, another joke that falls flat. :(
But what happens when they run out of fuel for the generator... oh.
I've never sold anything for which I thought it would be worth the extra cost.
You... you don't actually think those reserve dollars are all coins and paper money, do you? Total paper money in circulation amounts to...
Huh. I can't remember the last time I saw a pump that wasn't fully electronic.
Wait, what kind of dealer are we talking about again?
Power outages. Yeah. I'm pretty sure we've already reached the point of "no power? can't shop". At least in a grocery store or big-box retailer,...

Maybe someday. I sure like the looks of that one...

Then we have different definitions of "toning". Acetone will remove many foreign materials from a coin's surface, but it won't do anything to the...
Show-off. I still just use the bowl.
As @RonSanderson said, that would be a fire and explosion hazard, at least if there's a lid on the container. If there's no lid, it'll evaporate...
