...show began to cash in on it. For example, the Kaiser Broadcasting chain, which owns rights to the show in Boston, Philadelphia, Cleveland, and Detroit, gave its own Star Trek conventions as part of its fall promotion campaign for the show. In addition, the chain is taking heed of fan complaints and suggestions: it owns the series unedited and in the same order as NBC did.

It is possible to foresee the second dollar devaluation leading to a strengthening of the U.S. economy, a tearing down of barriers to trade and investment around the globe, and a newly sensible monetary system in which currency values shift frequently but moderately and with little fuss. It is equally possible to envision a world of continuing U.S. deficits, protectionist fences around national economies, and monetary chaos that would strangle the international movements of money, people and goods.
