Travel travel travel


Ronald asked me how many flights I had taken in my lifetime. I have no idea. 50 per year for 20 years makes 1,000. 1,000 miles per flight makes a million miles or 40 times around the world!

The paper this morning says that the U.S. 5% of the world's population produces 25% of all the manufactured goods produced in the world. China's 25% population produces 10% of all manufactured goods. Succeessful companies have 1 out of 14 employees doing R&D 1/14= 0.07 (7%).
U. S. net worth now at 112000MM/300MM= $373,330 per person (373×4= $1,492,000 per family) an increase of 27% during Bush's presidency. Canada's net worth? 25% of that?

I had a good week. I have a 3hr layover and a 1hr flight before I can hug my Beloved.
