Hi Jay - thanks for Fleck ref. And for the morning (which morning? whose morning;?) post.

It's been a (physically) hot day here in Munich and I did not do much. Except a thinking or two...

Exhibit a) - I dont think I have heard or read the expression "double-dip" as often as the last few days - I guess it started Wednesday (european) evening and today it's even the WSJ editorial dynos on CNBC who brought it over their lips several times. I dont know exactly what it means, except that for some the name of its originator tells it all (shame on you, Roach). I guess we'll just have to wait and see;
Exhibit b) I am about to post the latest on the expansion of the European Union at the usual place. I need - as everybody else - some direction, even if the tunnel is (as yet) unilluminated, damp and not exactly friendly to an average human

Exhibit c) what are we supposed to do?! Your morning post - you know what I am talking about - reminds me of the page out of the right stuff, with the test pilot spiralling down from 30.000 feet in a useless piece of hardware and reporting continuously "I punched B, and it's negative, repunched, still negative, A flashing affirmative, trying C"... And btw there's no ejection seat and who (in his obscene mind) would punch THAT button when it's your own ... existence ... you would be trying to bail out of.

I would give myself a C+ on the positiveness scale (B is positive after al, OK?). But again, Im just the run-of-the-mill canary in that coal-mine tunnel. Singing along...

In other words, still no better airway lounge around to sit and wait for our flight;

Greetings from (slowly cooling-off) Munich
