Oh no, don't run out of pretzels! Pretzels are important. They are the world's last hope in case things go wrong next month -g-

>>Maybe if they spend down their dollar reserves they will be better off when they do revalue.<< This is what China has been doing recently<g> I have a question though, why everyone was talking about China imports so many commodities, and few/no people talk about who are the end user of these commodities?

T, The smart move would be for the Chinese to buy coal mines and copper mines and iron ore mines and corn fields, etc. with their dollars, then devalue and pay themselves more dollars for the stuff they bought. Salvation Army was really uptight when I asked them to buy me a beer. Shoot, they were so huffy I didn't even mention the pretzels. <G>
