This is the D&D campaign I'm running at the moment -- imagine tranched and collateralized securities backed by souls and traded among gods, and then imagine September 2008. Should be a party.
According to Asimov's 3 laws of robotics currency is useless. This is substantiated by Roddenbury's Star Trek TNG when Picard states that their society has "evolved" beyond the need of currency.
Is this the one about the Cross-Dimensional Trans-Dresser pool hustler who applied the Universal Translator to the english on his bank shots? Complete babble resulted, of course, with the outcome being that every ball was hit into the (well, a ...) pocket before the carom could occur.
Quite the scandal amongst the interdimensional sporting crowd that was. Best of luck keeping all the players names correct ... or even spelled, come to that.

ReplyDeleteI have a ground floor opportunity in cross dimensional currency arbitrage.

ReplyDeleteEvolved.....PIMP...BWAHAHAHA!
Yes, please.
ReplyDeleteSounds like something Tom Stranger: Interdimensional Insurance Agent would be interested in.
ReplyDeleteTim D: either that, or perhaps a "Paratime" short story.
ReplyDeleteWhat have the goblins at Gringotts got to say about this???

Will, if we were to expand the box with Schrodinger's cat to hold the table and your hustler, would the balls strike the pocket or not?
ReplyDeleteAnd would any actions by the cat, good or bad, affect the play?
