<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1340392, member: 26302&quot;]Yeah, but dirt has &quot;value&quot;. I simply am wondering if they are an advance species will they have any use for gold, or would our uses for gold look like how we view cavemen and how they used stones for axes. Maybe they have a way to craft carbon isotopes to outperform gold&#039;s functions, and think its quaint how we use ancient materials.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know I am sounding silly, but the ultimate point is we are taught by others to revere and value gold. Its others wanting to possess our gold that makes us value it as much as we do. If that paradigm changed, yes gold maybe would be useful a little, but its probably 10 times as plentiful as platinum so I would expect its price to be 1/10th that of platinum. </p><p><br /></p><p>Just wild thoughts. I am sure I will never live long enough to ever have to worry about it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
