Tip, The other point that makes the author's conclusions about JIT kind of suspect is that so much of our GDP is now service related. Of course inventory declines when you are selling more insurance instead of building t.v. sets. But he never mentioned that factor. It was all the glories of technology. -g- BTW, I also think there is some chance that some day, JIT will lead to huge shortages and massive inflation, temporarily.
