I know the conventional wisdom is to amass precious metals, especially silver and gold, for when the SHTF. I do it along with most people. But One Second After brought up an important point: you can't eat silver and gold. The point may come when they have no value because no one will sell their last box of Froot Loops for even a pound of silver. What are your thoughts? What will become the new currency? I think as in OSA it may be bullets. I'll keep my silver against economic hard times but I won't count on it for physical emergencies.
