>>> In other words, what technical solution is best for a particular problem is inherently an economic decision and the product of the economic environment <<< Yeah, right. Which basically says that engineering is not a real profession, and that technology should stand still and wait for the economists to understand it. Technicians are supposed to balance economics with technology. Not economists. Engineers can learn the economic requirements of a situation when required, but the company accountants and other businesspeople seldom have the experience or training to understand the technology. So who should decide when the decision involves both sets of issues, technical and economic? The attitude you paraphrase here is the same that brought you the Ford Pinto, poisoned aquifers, the lousy space shuttle, and a million other crappy outcomes. Cheers, Chaz
