You may want to write your comments to Asia Times and Jack Crooks and see what they say.

About the charts, I think you are talking about this link marktaw.com Yes I noticed. The charts are, imo, very clearly marked. The specific chart that I think you are refering to was in absolute dollar amount. However, below it is the chart according to GDP and in that one China ranks only behind USA. Those articles and charts are worthy of careful study.

There are a lot more perks that go with owning the world's de facto money press than just the exchange cost...but I don't want to rehash the previous debate. I had expected the demise of USD as a the world's currency in 25-35 years (just enough for me to properly plan the retirement) but I see it now as being closer to 10-20 years.
