I don't view it as much of a scam.  They are different markets with very
different members and different demand.  I don't think our Global Market is
really all that close; think of Bryan's salary compaired to that of an Asian
farmer.  This is why kids in San Francisco aren't complaining too much cuz I
pay $2 less for my Lucky Charms in Denver.
