Nonsense TJ. It can be done in a few years, with some things taking only a year or two. <It is difficult to satisfy a 600 years pentup demand within 2 years, or 20, or 200.>

Life is lived by individuals, not in 100 year chunks. A baby is born and by age 20 they are fully ready to go and they do not carry a 600 year deficit.

A baby born in China doesn't need to learn how to fix a carburetor, solder some plumbing, or hang wires across poles to a twisted pair telephone. They go straight to the 21st century.

China can just let a Japanese company build a $10bn cyberphone network in a joint venture with Huawei and Unicom [one puts up the money, another does the work, the third sells it to subscribers]. A German maglev company can supply photo-electronic controlled super-speed transport systems, skipping decades of lead-polluting internal combustion engine traffic jams. China doesn't need to first import steam engines from industrial revolution Britain.

Hey! Here's Hayes...bye...
