"Just ANOTHER reason why the World and Europe in particular MUST continue to upgrade their computer and internet and intranet communications systems."

In many ways, northern Europe is far ahead of the US in terms of adopting and implementing new technology (even though much of that technology originates from the US). I think a big reason that the US productivity increases outpace Europe is more a matter of attitude. Europe is full of bureaucrats and interventionists - basically incompetent govt spending masses of public money on wasteful projects, stifling entrepreneurial spirit. And many of the major companies are still run by old men who got their jobs by sleeping with their schoolmasters at snooty schools.
