Dear Charlie,
Its always a pleasure to hear about creative uses of value.
Of course, there are many examples of local scarcities producing
economic value and advantage
=> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrian_purple
```
Biological pigments were often difficult to acquire, and the details of
their production were kept secret by the manufacturers. Tyrian purple is a
pigment made from the mucus of several species of Murex snail. Production
of Tyrian purple for use as a fabric dye began as early as 1200 BCE by the
Phoenicians, and was continued by the Greeks and Romans until 1453 CE,
with the fall of Constantinople The pigment was expensive and complex to
produce, and items colored with it became associated with power and wealth
Tyrian purple may first have been used by the ancient Phoenicians as early
as 1570 BCE It has been suggested that the name Phoenicia itself means
'land of purple' The dye was greatly prized in antiquity because the
colour did not easily fade, but instead became brighter with weathering
and sunlight It came in various shades, the most prized being that of
black-tinted clotted blood
```
And then there is the Norman technique:
=> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tally_stick#Split_tally
```
The most prominent and best recorded use of the split tally stick or
"nick-stick"[6][7] being used as a form of currency[8] was when Henry I
introduced the tally stick system in medieval England in around 1100. He
would accept the tally stick only for taxes, and it was a tool of the
Exchequer for the collection of taxes by local sheriffs (tax farmers
"farming the shire")[citation needed] for seven centuries.
The system of tally marks of the Exchequer is described in The Dialogue
Concerning the Exchequer as follows:
The manner of cutting is as follows. At the top of the tally a cut is
made, the thickness of the palm of the hand, to represent a thousand
pounds; then a hundred pounds by a cut the breadth of a thumb; twenty
pounds, the breadth of the little finger; a single pound, the width of a
swollen barleycorn; a shilling rather narrower; then a penny is marked by
a single cut without removing any wood.
```
# Here is the formal title of a horrible person:
```
Prince Andrew:
Full name: Andrew Albert Christian Edward
Full title: His Royal Highness The Prince Andrew Albert Christian Edward,
Duke of York, Earl of Inverness, Baron Killyleagh, Knight Companion of the
Most Noble Order of the Garter, Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian
Order, Canadian Forces Decoration, Aide-de-Camp to Her Majesty.
```
Here is the LP sleeve featuring an unfortunate application of purple:

ers:strip_icc():format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(90)/discogs-images/R-374086
3-1427878432-9699.jpeg.jpg
And the setlist:
=> https://www.discogs.com/Unknown-Artist-Royal-Wedding-HRH-The-Prince-Andr
ew-Miss-Sarah-Ferguson/release/3740863
(FYI, his full title is nearly as long as the number of tracks)
# Is it possible to tally him?
Set a base price and build an exchange rate determined by logistics
costs for said item?
I could imagine Prince Andrew saying:
> Tally Ho!
With apologies to Miss Sarah Ferguson....

Hi Charlie Brown (au) I expressed better myself here: gemini://gnuser.land/gemlog/2021-06-27-a-gemini-users-shared-database-for-places.gmi I was thinking a way to get info quickly and easy to read, community based and decentralized as much as it can; however not all the people have or will have a capsule but if they want participate they need something where adding their preferences. That's it! TGL -------------------------------------- The Gnuserland Do we want more centralised "review" and "scores" sites that end up getting abused, doxing people and lying about customers or business's What about creating a review in - textual form - photos - turning that into a blog and pdf/gemfile that can be downloaded and on top video review hosted as MP4/WebM (XviD/X264/AV1) on the gem server and or peertube instance I like Lukesmiths Recipe site idea -http://based.cooking maybe something like that could get adapted to reviews but as gemspace is for the entire world and not a single district/city/nation it might have to get sectioned off for areas/cities/nations, along with food types.
