<<treated to sumptuous entertainment.>> ai, ai, ai!!! Can't just imagine what the locals could do to make the US-based engineers come!!!! The nation-state is a dangerous anachronism. We've got to get rid of it. I have a couple of friends who got "rooted" meaning they've bought houses and are stuck with 20 or 25 years mortgages. Can't go on the risky contractor business that pays more, but can land you on a six-month forced holiday. They have to save every nickel and the girlfriends miss the good old days of not having to pay mortgage and to now have the added burden to cope with their men's insecurity. They are no loner able to vote with their feet! Thanks God I passed that long time ago. I can tell, you, mate, I don't envy many men 22 or 25 years old!! They are going to suffer a lot!!
