Comment: I am really surprised by this reply. The whole Islamic world is in  
revolt in three continents and, similarly, most of South America is in a state 

 of political effervescence, especially against US corpos. The war in Iraq  
continues to eat US fiscal resources away putting severe downward pressure on  
the dollar and interest rates which in turn pulls down job creation and income 

 generation,etc. Actually, a lot of etcs.
I have always been convinced that living in Manhattan or Brooklyn produces  a 
severe case of metropolitan insularity  out of which the rest of the  world 
is seen in a foggy,cloudy state.
