Deflation? Maybe. In the Seattle area you can get a slightly used 2002 Ford Explorer XLT for 22k. A pretty big TV for around $400. Building lots are rather expensive with prices ever climbing however. That's all I know. All this talk of deflation, geeze. And I was worried about a falling dollar and inflation, ha! A weaker dollar could save the world from deflation. For the United States, a shift in the “currency translation” effect would transform imported deflation into imported inflation. morganstanley.com Somebody help me out, what does that mean? And what does all this mean for somebody who has substantial savings in treasuries. ...................................................

Hi jfred. Another year down the line and the Biotelecosmictechdot.com bust is a fading memory and no deflationary cascading implosion happened. Even Japan's deflationary trend has come to a halt. Milton Friedman said deflation is impossible due to the invention of the printing press [not to mention the cyberspace pixelation process which enables unlimited money to be encrypted and auctioned in seconds]. Deflation remains as common as weapons of mass destruction in Iraq = much rumoured, looked for everywhere but not much evidence of anything. Mqurice
