<<Mark, I've had a nagging question for some time: does the internet create new jobs/sales or does it just take them away from conventional sales channels? Asked another way: does the net cause new spending, and if so, where does this money come from? Savings? I don't think anyone here has the answers.>> I obviously don't have the answer but that never stopped me from pretending I did!
