Gus, here's my world --- the chart I showed you before. stockcharts.com[w,a]dalaynay[dm][pd200,2] On this chart the value of the USD Index on Friday, 3 December 2004 was 80.9 Ten years previously, ie in 1994, at no time was the USD Index less than 82 and throughout most of the year was in fact higher. So by simple logic, the dollar is worth less now than ten years ago. Indeed, unless you can show that the chart is wrong, you will have to accept that Norris is. Further, the chart shows that, except for a few brief moments, the dollar is now worth less than it was twenty years ago.
