Just to be clear, that's not my comment, it's an economics theory by an author whose book I read a few years ago. The reason I brought it up was because I was thinking about all of the offshoring that was going on these days. If I remember right, ~100 years ago, The British Empire was THE global economic power and the British Pound was the world currency standard. Then America rose grabbed that brass ring. Are we in the midst of another transition with the weak dollar and rising 3rd world? Just a thought. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion 8 - Build next generation apps today, with easy PDF and Ajax features - download now http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/coldfusion/cf8_beta_whatsnew_052907.pdf Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:245491 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
