On the contrary, she (Rand) spent considerable time exploring and writing about the root causes of "Irrational" behavior. 

That looks like a staggered high capacity magazine, meaning the bullets are stored in zigzag fashion.  From top going down it has a "gravity assist".   Bottom up feed, bullets are fed by spring force - gravity.  I like it. 

There is simply not comparison between gold and bitcoin.  The thousands of years of acceptance of gold do not enter into the equation.

What enters is reality like paper gold, GLD, options, long and short positions, institutional holdings.  These moderate the price and swings in the price.

And STILL it drops 20% very rapidly.

Obviously, these factors do not currently affect BTC market price.

Very interesting.

Nope.

Rand was an athiest.

More precisely, she viewed God or a belief in God as unnecessary.

I just put on mah boots, and mah hat and mah spurs.

Gentlemen and ladies.

The rodeo is on!

The suggestions in #1 post are fairly good, may I add a few things.

WHAT YOU SAVE ON THE MEDIA

A) The backup ".DAT" file
B) the executable of the bitcoin client you used
C) The source code of that client
D) A readme.txt with the complete configuration of the computer you used, software and hardware.

WHAT YOU USE AS MEDIA

Two or three differing things.  For example, a CD Rom and a thumbdrive.

Note the various formats of thumbdrives and SD cards.  One of the old 1 or 2 GB cards may be better than the newer, higher density cards.  Using FAT may be better than using more advanced file systems.

Give me these things and ten years later I can bring it all back.  One way or another.

MtGox does have limits on withdrawals and does not give you a checkbook, so it is incorrect to think of it as analogous to a bank account.

So every Non Noobie is a 4 hour troll.

Hi everyone.

I'm a newbie from Texas.

Yes.

Cheese is good.

I have gtx670, so what would i expect? 200K/second?  Say that ran continuous for a month, any idea what it would produce?
