Darin, proto-pirates are these “Simpsons.”  They steal all my best ideas, but are so sneaky, they do it before I even come up with them.  

 

I used to watch the Simpsons back when I had TV, and found it funny.  There is some sophisticated humor in there among the goofy stuff.

 

I like the idea of using metal currency, for then you wouldn’t need to isolate it from the DNA in the cotton and flax.
