the existing capital production base is being destroyed as it simply cannot produce profitable products either. Well, sometimes an industry has to create demand for their products by offering new and innovative end items. Don't know how MU will do that, but it brings up a bit of trivia... The origin of Bailey's Irish Cream, one would be led to believe, must derive from some ancient Irish recipe concocted by some mythical drunken wretch of a Gaelic dairyman who, one day, mixed a bit of heavy cream with his Jameson's and found it to his liking. The reality is that there was a tremendous excess production of Irish whiskey and milk back in the '70s. So they tried to figure out how to resolve this problem and some inventive character decided to blend the two together. baileys.com Regards, Ron
