Wow. This is tied with James Madison's State of the Union Addresses for difficulty of reading and obtuseness of prose.

28 Book III, Chapter VII: Of a Double Standard and Subsidiary Coins

I would love to hear what JSM would say about Bitcoin.

(no, not really)

Would you like to hear what he has to say about Gold and Silver?

Hello,

Welcome to LibriVox! I have you down for section 36, thank you! But, before you record, please make sure to do your one minute test. It is not an audition, but our way of making sure that all your settings are where we need them to be. Your life will be much easier if we can check this first. What name would you like credited on your catalog page?
