PE> Any day you want to put your OWN money into local manufacture

PE> expect to see you risking your own money on anything has
PE> hair-brained as that though. Very willing to risk EVERYONE
PE> ELSE's money though. What a surprise. 

BL> You keep saying this silly dare and so far I've ignored you, but in
BL> fact I have designed, manufactured and sold several things during my
BL> long life in electronics, using my money and others', with and without
BL> partners, and unfortunately never with tariff protection.

And made a right cockup of it, I see.  Which is exactly why I don't want
you risking any of MY money on your hairbrained schemes.  Feel free to
"keep on" throwing your own money at it though.

BL> Oh yair, I know all about putting my money into local manufacture
BL> without tariff protection, and I know all about know-alls like you, 
BL> who have never actually *done* anything but are very big on theory.

And I know all about earning a living in a field not protected by tariffs,
and being SUCCESSFUL.  In ALL of the roles I have been in.  BFN.  Paul.
