...proposition the memo offers—to pay lower-wage countries to accept our pollution—is rather straightforward. Consider a machine that could magically suck grime and litter off the streets of Los Angeles and deposit it in Calcutta. Given that the Calcutta city government has more important things to worry about, it seems reasonable that it might value clean streets somewhat less than we do and be willing to take a little bit of grime for the right fee—a fee that could be immediately redirected into other, more pressing priorities, such as saving scores...
...burdened with such cheery titles as Blown to Bits, Cleaning Up the Mess and Debt Shock. No question: Biggs, chief global strategist at Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, is Wall Street's ranking pessimist. As such, being right--as he has been lately--is a mixed blessing. It means things suck.

They entertain premonitions that the earth will open, and in some ghastly, bracing time reversal, will suck the gaudy Clinton era backward into a grainy trauma of black and white. Unthinkable reversions become possible - mass unemployment, who knows? We have already seen California's power grids shuddering. Will grass sprout through the silicon chips, and all that brilliant information revert to sand, and Gates to Ozymandias? Maybe...
