It's interesting. If the world keeps going as is we will see a chip under the skin, with our medical records, DNA profile, and with the ability to spend by scanning the chip. The smart phones might prevent this from happening since they can do all of this now.

Good read, thanks Nolife.

Now a question....is it legal for me to scan a bill and post it on a forum for other people to comment about?

It's completely legal as long as you don't print it off and try to spend it!

I went back over this article since there's something I meant to post and forgot. This is a quote from the article "The last copper (actually bronze) cents were made in 1979." It was 1982 for the last copper cents to be produced. Another important fact not mentioned, Eisenhower clad dollars contain more copper than any US Coin, so why just the talk about copper cents?

You can still get Ikes at face value, so it's a better copper investment than copper cents.
