I thought you'd be in Italy!

I agree with what you say, and it will happen in stages. US cash-strapped inets will run out of steam before their later-starting bretheren in overseas markets, likewise for real companies.

Silicon Valley will be in the history books, European banks will have made their mark stimulating the importance of gold at an inopportune time, and the internet will be a wonderful tool for everyone to use.

I love the internet because it/we can do what environmentalists tried to do for so long: decrease the impact on scarce resources. Tele-commuting, conference calls (some colleagues of mine just joined streetfusion.com which books online conference calls/videoconferencing and is just rocking) these business are more efficient because they do not need to buy scarce resources at higher and higher prices, online is cheap and relatively safe for the environment. egreen.

9984 holders will own a significant chunk of that mature i-net space.

Interesting to think that some US venture fund managers still think it too 'early' to invest in Asia. Well, 9984 is early. Just like Kleiner Perkins, who backed Netscape, Amazon, Cisco in the early days and back many venture-backed IPOs. You don't get rich joining the later-stage game in Asia, because by the time you do, 9984 will be an early-to-later stage player and will get the best terms.

Doing just fine, thank you very much.
