Jay: China + India = Stampede + Commotion = Income increase + Savings increase = need for truly and absolutely convertible Currency (in space as well as time) + historical need for Contingency preparation = need for more Gold to hoard + more Platinum for use = ... LOL! Given their cultural and historical tendencies when it comes to savings me thinks you've got something there! ;-) But, I kind'a view India and China from the standpoint of trying to bring a fully loaded oil tanker up to speed. That is, you'd better know what you're doing, and where you're going, long before you reach accelerated conditions because baby, you are NOT going to be able to stop and turn on a dime. Especially when you're motoring in geopolitically narrow straights. Bottom line? The next 25 years sure are going to be interesting.... Regards! John~
