mjr_: but after all, its the idea that will survive, though i have high hopes for bitcoin, it may not be the ultimate winner

Ukto: [17:23] <fiat500> "Proponents want bitcoins to be the new monetary normal, yet there are 119 million Americans without broadband access" <-- I bet they have cell phones with internet access. and APPs :P
fiat500: i live in the middle east, i can walk down any street any time of the night and not have to worry about getting shot or mugged
