OT JQP I have travelled to 25+ countries and most are so screwed up that it is beyond belief. Yes I have visited China, not an industrial area so all I saw were bicycles and over population.

Alot of Europe is nice but there are to many people and cost of living is very high in many areas.

I found it quite a contrast to drive from NJ to JFK airport and fly to Zurich and drive from the airport. Like night and day, a trip through a war zone and another through a fairy tale. At the time the radio talking heads were complaining about a cease fire in the Lebanonese civil war, and wondering when they would call a cease fire in NYC.

Things are much better in NYC today,

<Soon the Space Station will be the only place left to move to>

Sorry, the noise polution is so bad on the station that the astronauts must wear earplugs or risk hearing loss, I kid you not. (Where are the good engineers these days ?- not in aerospace anymore)
