I think that's right. In addition, the Chinese do not have modern
delivery systems. With their current technology, they probably could
hit only part of the US. If Prince George's Star Wars plan proves
feasible, then it will have the ability to knock out maybe 20 missles

G'day all,
Here's what passes for bullishness these days. I notice the world doesn't

Bonds on Track to Beat Stocks: Rates of Return (Update1)
By Heather Bandur
New York, Aug. 31 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. Treasuries are on track to beat the
Standard Poor's 500 Index for a second year. That hasn't happened since
1981 and 1982, when the economy was in recession.
