Ken--

Yes, I agree...It will be the oil situation that takes us down if some progress isn't made and fast. Even if everything else works perfectly. <ggg>

Bruce Webster is like a canary for me. I know something of his background and "thought processes." I'll be watching his press statements closely. It's one of those, "You know the jig is up when Bruce Webster says things like...(fill in the blank) type things. Perhaps I give him too much credit? No, not really. I'm looking for "signs."

We've got a truly global economy now...soon we'll get to see what a truly global economic breakdown looks like.

A preview of coming attractions may be seen in the foreign press on occasion. I've been reading the bbc for the stories on Asia and Latin American. I don't link the stories to the thread since they are technically off-topic. Some of those regarding the social breakdown in families, the "economic" (formerly middleclass) orphans who just get dropped-off at the orphanage by "shamed" and beaten-down parents who can no longer afford to feed them and the greased suicide bridge story are just too sad for words. Assuming no y2k problems it would be difficult to imagine that the flotsam and jetsam wouldn't wash up on U.S. shores eventually. With this disaster on the horizon, well...
