Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." -- Isaac Asimov

But ask yourself this question: if currency exchange rates have anything to do with reality, why is the world's leading debtor nation's currency so strong?

Because the world economy is weak and there are too many people with money who are too afraid that some bank somewhere is going to implode due to all the bad debt they're still carrying. Sure, currency markets are rife with speculators. But the costs are real for Putin and his cronies. (And the rest of the Russian population, unfortunately.) Cheers, Scott.
