I like their sensible commentary! Just to back up one of their points

“There are thousands of complementary currencies…many of these currencies are supported by governments because they’re an alternate form of financing in local communities.”

Here is one example: http://www.transitiontowntotnes.org/totnespound/home

Interesting indeed. Especially the article that was linked to (about the guy who bought lunch with Bitcoin) was very... well-written, and will likely work as a confirmation of sorts for business owners to accept Bitcoin, even at a physical point-of-sale.
