But, for example, not too long ago I could wear my most ratty pair of blue jeans on the street in Tokyo and I'd have been able to sell them right off my body for over 200 American. I didn't have to force anything on that person; they wanted it. I suppose that's the fault of the US government (and Levi Strauss too), right? Exchanges like this about very complicated subjects, especially in the fractured ebb and flow of usenet type communication, is almost never very efficient or effective, and often demeans the subject by degrading into simplistic examples, statements and accusations, by accident or even intent. However, this is chat@, so knock yourselves out, just don't expect the kind of *real* communication you'd get sitting across from someone different from you and talking over a beer or some sweet tea. There is a limit to what a computer can do, even one running FreeBSD.
