Matthew, in regard to the topquote from Maurice 
Allais in this article, there is a recent book on 
counterfeiting in 19th century America, which 
concluded that the counterfeiters actually helped 
the economy because there was such a shortage of 
cash. I heard an interview with the author, but I 
can't recall his name or the title of the book. 
Does anybody know what book/author this might have been?
