Chip: You are right on. Except the DMark has not always been so strong - thus their concern. Way back (before even my time) Germany went through The Great Hyperinflation...where peoply got paid twice a day - so they could go out and buy something, anything, before the money lost even more value. At the apex the govt. was printing million mark notes on only one side because to print both sides would have cost more than the bill was worth. It literally "took a barrel full of marks to buy a loaf of bread". Not so sure if that fear still has much sway in current Bundesbank thoughts....Times are a changin' Best Don
