Hello Brian,
"Technology is changing his oil and gas stuffs" etc. I'm not sure of what you mean. Are you just referring to seismic data, or to super deep drilling or to more efficient engines for cars or lighter, stronger materials with which to make cars, or are you looking at competitive energy sources? If so, which energy source do you mean?
By the way, during the cold war we heard a lot of how many engineering students were graduating in the USSR, many more than in the US. It turned out that most of them never saw the machinery that they were studying, they only had book learning.
I'm not saying the same thing is true about China or India, it's just that we need large samples and much detail to know the real truth there. But look at Japan. They still don't have too many first class universities. Here I have seen a large sample and it's clear Japan is a nation of cooperating technicians, punctilious, obedient, careful of details as nobody else is anywhere but inventiveness is below average in the world. Degrees are not always the most important matter. I'm sure that Elmatador will agree. Japanese employees have the degrees but not the creative ability. Comparing numbers of degrees isn't worth the bother.

really, 100 times, eh, that is some multiple

facts, oops, what, the guy is an educator, and a most humble one, doing the correct thing, as in being humble;

you really believe that china does not produce quality students ... that is funny :0)

ytd nav up up and away, on floating on oil, levitated by gas, mineralized into gold, and ready to ... here it goes, do it again, once more and ... oh, well, you know

we are now one year closer to the inevitable, are you getting prepared?

technology finance.yahoo.com is too funny

no, don't bother to max beyond year five, since i cannot conveniently feature a chart of gold going back a few thousand years :0)

here is a tip, technology is a fad, fading fancy, a story; whereas gold is a classic, fundamental, and a substance.

ok, back to party, to continue celebrating a successful 12 months of looting, by getting the big picture correct, from money rock hong kong and freedom mountain kowloon

another tip, educators typically cannot get the big picture correct, and degrees, as stated by me enough times, are simply car rear windshield decals
