there already is a lot of personalized money circulating in the economy and
it does not require reformation of the "banking/money system."

there are over 1000 LETS community currency systems in the world with new
ones popping up every day...there are many HOURS systems like the one in
Ithaca, n.y.

the commercial barter networks turn over billions in proprietary currencies
every year. (they're not really "barter" networks though)...computers do
the banking/accounting.
