RE; the comparison with 1929 (more on this) Tommaso - It seems to me that there are many differences between the eras...several which have been mentioned, of course. In the 20's this country was heavily agrarian and just beginning to flex the muscles of mass production manu- facturimg. Most of the goods consumed were made "at home". Today, as has been pointed out - we consume goods from all over. (Last weekend I bought Brazilian lobster tails, and Russian king crab claws). Drove to the store in a Toyota RAV 4, etc., etc. From vcr's to clothing - we get goods from abroad. I have three sons. One is still in college (studying engineering) and working full time for a co. involved with holography. The oldest is a rocket scientist (communications design for the manned space-craft). The youngest is a software testor for a local tech co. Point being - this is an entirely different economy than the 20's....expect changed scenarios. BWDIK Don
