You really need to stop reading FT and the Economist
I disagree, because they do bring out the information. They refuse to see it and to analyse properly at times, but they do provide it, and it is up to us to extract it from the more reassuring commetnary they provide.
They have value to me, and they help ME have some value as well... In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
Of course, being French, you always have cafes to unwind at...
Speaking of unwinding, I don't know about the rest of the world, but we can now buy (cheap) wine in cardboard boxes. Each box has a plastic bag inside with a spigot attached. This sticks out through the side of the box and makes pouring the wine easy. The benefit is that the bag is designed to collapse as the wine is drunk. This keeps the air out and keeps the remaining wine fresh longer.
After scoffing at the idea for several years, some of the better wineries are now doing something similar. Only their boxes are round and hold three liters. They cost more too. Policies not Politics ---- Daily Landscape
