Lawrence -

<< I'll take credit for your success anyway, though ;)>>

You should. It was your hedging comment that pushed me over the top. The "more than 30% revenue drop" is probably about as significant as what they didn't mention - another drop in GMs...

I'll dig out some info and send it to you She had more to do with shaping his ideas than anyone.(does that help?) Read up my friend

"p.s. I didn't know Ayn Rand had much to say about monetary policy..."
Among other things, she said that capitalism is moral--in fact, the ONLY moral economic system, because it rewarded those who produced, and forced those who don't want to produce to do so anyway.

However, she wasn't talking about the form of capitalism that exists today. And some would argue (including me) that she wasn't talking about ANY kind of capitalism that ever existed, anywhere (including Hong Kong, held by some to be the purest incarnation, until last summer, anyway).

FWIW
