Hi Stefan,

I am one who rejoyces in the overabundance and low costs of our toys.

Our government makes it sound like we are on the edge of a disaster, 
but I think that is so people are afraid and want to keep the 
govenrment there to 'protect us'

I think it is the other way around.  if we had less regualtions, we 
would have better everything !  lower prices and cleaner air.  More 
things available and better relations with our neighbors !

but, as it stands, we get more variety of chips than probably anyone 
else in the world, soda that costs less than probably anywhere else, 
gasoline that costs less.  I just bought 10 8x12 PCB boards for $2.00 
each  1/16 thick, but they are CEM-1 not FR-4.  regardless, that is 
still 1/4 the price of new.

But, when you have the choice of getting 3 times more soda (and ice) 
for 20 cents, you take it.

Dave
