Only for the moment though. From what I recall of the Depression and WW2 history, the US economy was on the mend by the early 40s...WW2 added more fuel. Right now, we're in a slowdown...depending on what happens, we could see the pace pick up. Although, I would rather see our economy rebound in other ways.

I hear stories about life during the war from older members of my family. And while it doesn't sound so bad now, I honestly hope that I do not have to live through a large-scale war during my lifetime.

NBN: You REALLY need a few of those beers Saturday...relax. Have a constructive argument with the guy rather than throwing out names. Jag's pretty smart for being a teenager...and a bad speller.
