dale <Remember how the economy did with senior in office. It was so bad I was unemployed the last 18 months of his term.>

I really don't get it. Economy over the last 20 years (three presidents):

Reagan = bad
Bush = bad
Clinton = good

So all of this Gore=bad and Dubya Bush=good confuses me. Only kind of OT, I'm referring to how the elections have effected the techs. Stretch?

Ah yes. The Domino's year, I remember it well. I did pick up some job skills, I got to the point where I managed to make a large pepperoni in 43 seconds...

Not really Sir George the Old's fault though. In fact, if he had made some announcement of concern over the economy and waved his hands about setting up a commission to examine the problem and threw out some ideas of things that were being considered, and then didn't do anything, he would have had a shot at re-election. But to announce that his plan was to do nothing, even though it was the best thing, was pretty dumb.
