"1786 Far too often these days little feminized fanboys play little games at home as their Constitution dies while real heroes are off dying in faroff lands for the fiatocracy The present invention would allow them to play a novel form of game that would allow them to protect the US Constitution and then perhaps some day they might grow up to defend it in real life "
This made the rounds soon after that patent was filed, I googled 'fiatocracy.' I just did again, and am please to announce that the results are roughly the same. No immediate explanations, but a good collection of crazy. As far as I can see, the Fiatocracy is the rule of the evil fiat currency; the term is a shibboleth for old-school gold-standard devotees.
That's the one! Now I remember why I know it, "Dr" McGucken showed up on a blog I read and proceeded to... well, at first he argued with the blogger and other posters, but when that didn't work out very well for him, he ended up "arguing" with a bunch of sock-puppets played by himself. They were obvious, of course, because they all had his strange affectations.
Definitely not a well man. I found an image of the cover of his book, though! In it, we can see the gold 45 revolver at work, as well as his, um, interesting approach to graphic design.
