G-20 Meeting Tomorrow
If you are seeing this the same day I’ve written it, the G-20 will emerge from their pre-meetings and start having their formal, above-board meetings tomorrow, April 1. Fools Day. The irony is so thick I won’t even comment.
Just in… the new cameras in London will be switched off on April 1. Why? Because they record at 16 pixels less witch than a certain legal spec calls for. If you believe that, I have some land in Florida to sell you that’s under only a few inches of water.
Previously in… the Brits had already set aside 10,000,000 pounds (about $14,300,000.00) to pay for extra riot police.
Mixed in… the Russians took Kazakhstan President Nursultan Nazarbayev’s idea to create a world currency called the Acmetal (acme = best, tal = from ‘capital’) and brought it up in the pre-meetings. Then the Chines picked up the idea and really pushed it. Word is they will be promoting it for acceptance at the G-20 formal meeting. They have many other countries already agreed to back the new world currency.
All mixed up… Treasury Secretary Geithner told a Congressional hearing that he categorically rejected a world currency. On the same day, the told the Committee for Foreign Relations that he was completely open to a new global currency system.
Lots of very strange things are on the agenda for this week. In a few days we’ll know if any of them mean anything serious.
