John, Don't get me started on drug costs/health insurance. We had that debate here last week, and I think I was alone on my side of the argument. You can also take it (the fact that nobody joined your side) that you were doing so well arguing your points that there was no need to "help". Joe

John, excellent post, especially this part: <With JIT inventory control, and the efficiency that tech has put into the supply chain, I think that it exasperates a slowdown. At the first hint of a demand issue, everybody along the supply chain has the capability and vision to just shut down. My guess is that it feeds on itself. This is the first real slowdown we've seen since these technologies were put in place, so I think we are in virgin territory. Also my wild guess would be that when things begin to pick up, that should happen at the same velocity. On the other hand, maybe things will continue to spiral down out of control.> I for one am planning for the rapid recovery that you are talking about. My guess is that we are definitely not going to continue spiraling down, for I haven't seen anything substantial suggesting that. Tenchusatsu
