Along the similar line...

I get a lot of admiration, envy, and amazement when I tell my overseas
(particularly Asian) associates about my project.  Comments like...

"You mean, the government LET's you do that?"
"How much tax did you have to pay?

 ...makes me appreciate the opportunity I have (for now)...

Reading Ron's message and the attached links ...
It just simply amazes me that so much information is available to us 
"Commoners" via the internet.
We all (I'm sure) have had the same thought..."Where would we be without
the 
internet as a resource?"
This thought tells of my age - graduating from high school without ATM 
cards, cell phones, or sci-fi concepts of home computers with access to 
information such as this.  "Such as country!"  "Such a scientific age!" 
Enough of this ... get back to work.
