Don, My prediction is even darker (unfortunately). I believe the political situation today is akin to the early 1930's. The coming clash is going to be between the Islamic and Western World, with China most likely sitting on the sidelines. Think of the kind of ideological savagery of WWII on the eastern front but with modern weapons. Without some real statesmen (i.e. none of the current cast of clowns) we are heading for real trouble within a decade. Regards, Greg
