Hi KT, you wrote- "Patron, The understating of CPI is so ridiculous now that it is hard for even the BLS to present the numbers with a straight face. A lot of people say real inflation is 6% while I think it is closer to 10% on the things I buy." Funny you should say that about inflation. I've been saying that for quite a while now. I'm absolutely amazed at how much some stuff has gone up in price and yet the gov't keeps putting out these low inflation figures. And I'm not talking about the obvious, like gasoline. Regarding the hookers, I heard that the male hookers are filing a class action lawsuit for equal pay. Maybe you'll be able to afford these high prices soon. <G>
