aluminum crank: 389 ? -- $415 USD
chain: 29.90 ? -- $31.7 USD
cogset: 149 ? -- $158 USD

Those question marks are supposed to be Euro symbols. I guess those symbols
don't work in newsgroups?

Just type Euro, as you would type USD and all your problems are gone.

Your symbol looks like a question mark in Windows Live Mail, but the euro
symbol in the googlegroups archive. I just changed the read font and
international send settings in my Live Mail newsreader to unicode (UTF-8).
Lou Holtman's quote of your euro symbol now works.

Let me try again now. If this doesn't work, I give up.

Nope, doesn't work. Just type Euro. Those 'voodoo hard to remember
keystrokes' is for nerds...


Lou, in the euro zone. Done that, try that, gave up.

There is no doubt that American unions have screwed themselves and

knocked down and kicked senseless. Britain has done so much better
since Mrs Thatcher made the unions responsible for the damage they
caused under her limp predecessors, and Germany (which was given an
idealized version of British trade unionism by Fabians after WW2) has
done well for half a century because the German unions are partners
with capital and management rather than antagonists.

Von Mises - Hayek - Friedman - Greenspan - our current meltdown.

Reagan and Thatcher were inspired by economists who were just plain
wrong. That much should be obvious. Those wing-nut theories were so
disastrous they've inspired a whole new wave of socialism in Russia
and South America. What a nightmare, God forbid we should live in a
place like Sweden or Canada.

Give it a rest. That ship sailed 20 years ago.

Oh, right State Socialism at Fannie/Freddie has worked so well,

It may, now that we're set to try it.

have a go at the Feds in the car business.

Why not, what have they got to lose?

Seriously, if we're going there, why stop at that? *Socialism is just
communism-light. *Why not give real communism a go? *Let the state own all
businesses for the common good? *Americans shouldn't be discouraged merely
because the Soviets couldn't make it work.

Don't encourage Colesy, even for a cruel joke. He's a wishful thinker
with a poor grasp of cause and effect. He thinks that because
something was possible, it happened and is therefore history,
regardless of the fact that the record shows clearly that it didn't
happen. Look up "Roosevelt" on this conference recently for proof and
go to Colesy's last message in the thread. God knows, he probably
already told his wife he's found a disciple for his voodoo economics
on RBT -- you!
