I thought about it a few months ago but just for a bit.

Not much since then. But the growth rate before the slow down was tugging along pretty damn strong to say the least. Than it was like pulling the emergency brakes on a car. Wham, it stopped growing. So I was thinking the potential is there for the growth to pick up again at a healthy speed. But until the personal spending habits in this country change, the threat of a consumer strike of sorts will always exist. Further more, but I think to a larger degree it has been addressed, corporate spending habits also need to change.. Anyone recall how much CMGI paid to have the football field named after them? And there are morebetter examples, I'm just generalizing here.

Obviously this thesis needs more work to even be considered. I just thought I'd throw out a line and see if anyone was biting.
