I think they will eventually be allowed to do their designs. What I
can't tell you is if they will be allowed to do so by the
forward-thinking progressives or by those who will be picking up the
pieces after the oil runs dry and the economy comes crashing down.<br>

I definitely want to watch the DVD. I am entertained by watching
self-serving billionaires ruin everything for us because they have a
level of greed most people stamp out of their children by the time they
are four. Gives me faith in humanity.<br>
