Tinfoil Hat, Not: Copy Or Scan Money?

     I guess you can try -- but those bills are cryin' "Stop!" at the machine.  Link goes to the EURion Constellation, and that's just the one that got found out; there are other schemes, count on it.

     The battle between coiners and counterfeiters is at least as old as money and if you count buying a pig in a poke only to let the cat outta the bag, it's probably older.  In the case of mediums-of-exchange, ain't nobody spozed to water it down but Teh Gummint.  They get bent all outta shape when there's competition.
