Lim, help me out, the only comments from Davox I saw were about the possibility of cancer cures, and the problems in Columbia. Yesterday the comments were of a soft-landing of our economy. Can you give me a link of what you're reading? Thanks, John

limtex (OT) You whine constantly about things like in the process [Mr. G] blew up the entire World economy, then you whine some more when people label you a whiner. So far the only evidence I see points to nothing but a mild slowing of the US economy. Perhaps we get a few quarters of negative growth. Maybe worse than that, maybe better, but no overwhelming evidence either way. I see zero evidence for the world economy being 'blown up'; that's pure, unsubstantiated hyperbole. And when I think about it, He was determined to whack the Naz and teach everyone a lesson they will never forget for the rest of their lives. He achieved his aim but unfortunately in the process he blew up the entire World economy It seems to me that the "obsession" you ascribe to AG lacks substance, though your obsession with him is readily apparent. At any rate, The broader context is only a short-term backdrop to SNDK's own situation. An individual like AG doesn't have power to substantially alter SNDK's general business trajectory. There are too many powerful forces 'conspiring' ;) in SNDK's favor : digital photography becoming cheaper and far more flexible than conventional; proliferation of the number of devices accepting CF and MMC/SD form factors; expansion of broadband technologies, which finally makes rapid transfer of large files - whether images, sound, or a combination thereof - possible, and which will lead to increasing opportunities/need for reliable, removable, light storage options; and I'm sure there are others. You do make your contributions, but your constant complaining substantially degrades their perceived value and readability. Andre
