Executive Order 6814?Requiring the Delivery of All Silver to the United States for Coinage

I reckon this will happen again at some point. Silver will just be needed for different reasons.

I was in a 120y car crash. My mate was driving and we were dragging an XU1. We got over the hill and to our horror, we saw red lights and all cars banked up. We hit the car in front so hard that my hand smashed the 120y's ashtray.
We were all ok though. Young and stupid!

I remember being in a crash when I was about 5. It was an orange Datsun 200B. I wasn't wearing a seatbelt.

Made by The National Film Board 1948. Directed by R Maslyn Williams. Much of the romance associated with the development of the gold industry is to be found at Kalgoorlie on the golden mile, that rich strip of Western Australian territory. This film illustrates life in the town and the work of the miners: the school of mining, the vast store of mining tradition, the old-time prospectors who still search the surrounding countryside for new and fabulous strikes. It takes the viewer underground, deep into the galleries where the gold holding rock is blasted out, and shows the intricate business of separating the valuable metal from the rock that is undertaken on the surface.

After looking at the workers in the picture, it is clear the artist didn't know about the immigration plans afoot...
