What's frustrating is that oil is pegged to the dollar which is very weak compared to the major currencies in the world. So the increase is killing us but having only a minor impact on Europe and Japan. When I talk to my German friends, things are doing well [ie the house sale I posted yesterday]and they can't understand why we are so gloomy. That is weird and unusual. Been around a while and seen a lot but not exactly whats happening now. I don't really know what to make of it... except that it's not good.
