OT Tata Motors in India has gotten lots of press lately over their plans to produce a $2500 car for home consumption. Lots of skepticism over whether they can actually build one that cheap, but if they get close it's just gonna make things worse. (That is, if the Indian road system gets a massive upgrade in coming years).... John

OT: I have lots of other info on the "peak oil problem" and can post if folks are interested. Yes, but I also have a suggestion: How about someone starting a new, OT-only CSCO thread? I have no problem with OT postings here, but they can get lost among the CSCO only postings at times. Also, people might feel more free to make OT postings, which would not be OT there. QCOM has more than one thread so there is no reason CSCO can't, too. The OT discussions on the CSCO thread are (to me) quite interesting. A "Cisco Systems, Inc. - OT Only," thread could be a good place for everyone here to go for lengthy, OT discussions. Just a suggestion from someone who finds the OTs here highly informative. Lynn P.S. CSCO closed at 34.08 today. Tomorrow, with any luck, CSCO might just reach the average of peoples' closing prices predictions for 12/31/07, $34.43: Message 23846111
