I'm a man of science and find it apalling that the worlds leading nation let's it's currency remain ominously undefined. To simplify let's recall the old MB game of Monopoly. It's bank had a fixed amount of cash. We must at some point clearly set the amount of M3 and announce and vote on any changes in it.

I too have a scientific background and can only hope that some day as the greedy become greenies that their (Yes!, THEIR currencies) will be denominated - and backed by - energy and nutrition units rather than by who's economy is "hotest" - and perhaps least honest or responsible.
Gold used to be universally relied upon but now surely its time - since there ain't enough gold but a crushing need to print money and hide the result - to tie the global economy to the globe. In this way all governmental/money club finacial decisions that used to be blame-free (can't fault a guy for trying to make a buck!) can be more readily tied to their global result let alone their motivations.
To do this we will hopefully equate a dollar with one calorie (or whatever those totally non-scientific but highly mathmatical economists want to assign it) and whether that means a calorie from burned oil or gas or digested oats in my own body - why that is up to me.
This will help tie "market forces" to "ecological consequences" on our dear old earth, over which - like it or not - we don't (yet?) deserve to have dominion.
