In another post he mentions that leaving the gold standard in the

correct -- I mean, not only is he spouting a conspiracy theory, but
he doesn't even have the facts of the theory right.
Presumably he's referring to the point at which Nixon closed the gold
window--which is one possible definition of leaving the gold standard.
Or he got it wrong on purpose, to provoke the two of you in to arguing
about whether he's retarded, or profoundly retarded.
Nah - for that we defer to The Expert.

Round about the newsgroup go,
In the reeking ravings throw;
Tinpot fuehrer's frothing rot,
Ego of a Bassior-bot,
Pervo YingYang and his troops,
Trolling in a dozen groups,
Sporger's babble, Eggy's whine,
Canard's canine snarling "Mine,"
Fundy's rant and spammer's lie,
I know you are, but what am I?
<etc.>
