You contradicted your own commentary and falsely projected dis-belief in currency, but went on to comment by way of implication that you were dependent upon that same currency which you would sell you PMs for in an emergency.

Your unwillingness to consider other perspectives on these boards is evidenced from the many challenges you've faced almost every time you have stated such ironic things.
