The last I heard, there had been a big storm, trashed their greenhouses and they did not have the funds or gumption to rebuild. I'm sorry to hear about Tom. Tom and Paula Speranos (sp) were two entrepreneurs who where way beyond their time. Their time would be now, if there is anyone there to carry the torch.

Here, here, big cheers!

Wen, I do believe that Tom passed away. I am not sure if Paula still
has the operation. It sure would be good news to hear that she does.

Ok, now, James. I'm going to give you a friendly little kick in the a@@.
BUMPH There, that was to kick you out of the box. You see yourself what is
going to happen just by looking at the fish counter. The infrastructure
that allows us to import like mad is collapsing. Soon we will not be able
to easily import from China or anywhere else. Tomorrow there will not be
any imported fish from China. The cases will be empty. But in a few days,
there will be a limited amount of expensive trout, catfish, salmon, haddock
etc all from US ranchers and fisheries in the case. A while later there
will be more and the prices will begin to fall as more and more US investors
begin putting their money in real tangible companies instead of companies
which trade in intangible commodities. Where before US tilapia and other
ranched fish entrepreneurs could not compete with the influx from China, now
they can. The same will go for other sectors of our manufacturing industry.
What is collapsing is the machine that sucks the cash from our manufacturing
sector. A big part of the reason for the collapse is that our manufacturing
sector has been sucked dry and it was now sucking on the real estate market
which was due to make a natural down turn. If this collapse of the
funny-money trade maintains it's momentum, this will be a very, very good
thing. Have you ever read Atlas Shrugged?

I think is time to dig out my old aquaponics notes. What has Tom and Paula
been up lately?

Wendy
