You should read his new book, "The World is Flat."  I am currently reading
it.  This book is about how information and technology is leveling the
playing field around the world and how China and India are growing by leaps
and bounds and how we in the U.S. need to be mindful of this and look for
the new opportunities to help us stay competitive.  When I first heard of
the book on "The Daily Show" where he was interviewed by Jon Stewart all I
could think about was how we really need to finish our metrication here.

Tom Friedman is terrific this morning, and I'm sure everyone can see
metric overtones in his argument...
