Question: What is the truest definition of Globalization? Answer: Princess Diana's death. Question: How come? Answer: An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel, driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whiskey, followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles, treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines! And this is sent to you by an American, using Bill Gates' technology Which he enjoyed stealing from the Japanese. And you are probably reading this on one of the IBM clones that use Taiwanese-made chips, and Korean-made monitors, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported by lorries driven by Indians, hijacked by Indonesians, unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen, trucked by Mexican illegal aliens, and finally sold to you. That, my friend, is Globalization! Finally, an explanation in English Any opposing opinions? (edited by paradox on 04-15-04 06:11 PM) (edited by paradox on 04-15-04 06:13 PM) |

Yep, I saw it here not too long ago as well, let me find it back ... thread.php?id=885 Wow, that was also posted by paradox, and no reply ... so which one do I close? It's somewhat interesting, though, but you could probably do that with many other things ... (edited by Acmlm on 04-15-04 06:20 PM) |

Personally i think it would be best for Australia to keep out off this one. We are already involved in so many things its to hard to keep track. |
