Henry There is another one called the Millenium Crash I have been captivated by the 'global financial calamity' syndrome from time to time...... Especially those found in the various wave theories including Ravi Batra. But I have always been careful to use them as filters rather then reality. I've come to believe the syndrome is closely related to television news and movie mania penchant for destruction of all kinds and the 'vulnerability' that comes with lost identity and autonomy....in all of its' definitions. Unconsciously the media creates a false set of synclinal pressures that cannot resolve themselves. We are constantly bombarded by knowledge that we can do nothing with....and feel effective in altering as much as we would wish too. Never been either a TV watcher or movie goer.......so these are just observations, but they both make there livings by feeding you the worst first. Jim Leher and world news and local weather is about all I can handle. If we are going to enter a period of German deflation I had better learn to make soap or some useful product to trade...or better yet 'Beer". Chip
