#5: This is the day that the US went off the Gold Standard. It’s essentially the day that the world became an information economy, an economy based on data rather than stuff. All of a sudden money went from representing a physical-world commodity to representing what we said (and/or agreed) it represented. Everything that’s happening right now-- from the economy to the internet-- is a direct line on the vector of this change.
