Jay, it's certainly not a boring script. We live in very, very interesting times. Personally, as you know, I envisage a quite different script. Which is the polar opposite. I see a continuation of the eons-long trend of humanity, but with a turbo-charged acceleration into cyberspace with 6 billion people paddling the globalized waka in an awesome display of co-ordinated, synergistic, CDMA phragmented photon cyberphone enhanced, optical-fibre strengthened creativity and construction. I see a 21st century version of the 19th century industrial revolution. But a better comparison is a stick of dynamite to a hydrogen-fueled 100 megaton thermonuclear explosion. The industrial revolution was a relative fizzer compared with what's going on now. Hmmm, that's not an apt analogy as explosions usually connote destruction rather than construction. Though we could think in terms of earth moving, or bolide deflection, for civil engineering projects. I see the beginning of time travel. You see the end. Both our scripts involve Kabooom by the look of it. Mqurice

I've got to write more often. The Thread is getting carried away! My God! It hapopend before! ENRON 'souped' the numbers. Shell's reserves were on steroids. Bush is getting help from weverywhere to win the elections and people are buying!! Guys! There is nothing brighter is just make up. Remove the make up! Or at least try to see through it. Does anyone here remember companies shipping stuff to a warehiuse, putting out a Press Release, shares skyrocketing? Don't you remember when Y2K bug was going to send us to the stone age?

Hi Jay, I guess the PRC really really really likes George Bush ;o) jsmineset.com 5. The Chinese are going to float their currency up somewhat prior to the US elections to help the incumbent save some face. However, that upward float absolutely means that the Chinese will not be enthusiastic buyers of US Treasuries as they have been in the past to maintain a grossly artificial relationship between the Chinese currency and the US dollar. This will remove more demand from the US Treasury market further injuring the US bond market and therefore the US dollar. Spots...
