CAD just hit $1.08. They say it's on target for $1.20 by 2008.

eventually it is going to level to the 95 cent range, after hitting the 1.20 high

so they say

I have little birdies that say that this is a currency self correction and it's going to stay at least at parity.

We'll be spared the partisan bickering for a change, as they all gang up on the new guy.

Not that there's a snowball's chance of it happening.

mmm. here here.

Close to beta stages of an entirely reworked codebase. What do you want.

Apparently they'd rather broken releases than wait for working stuff

Look at the interval between 1.42 and 1.50, quite a while, right? Now consider they're doing major core rewrites. I wouldn't be surprised or complain if it took a year, perhaps two, to release something new.

Im happy they put in NTSC. Whatever it takes for 'em to bring up new stuff, it's AOK for me.

like i said, i don't care. just explaining the reasoning behind that post.

Since 1.51 is mostly stable, I tend to agree with you.

see as soon as you guys announced what you were up to I figured everyone mellowed out, I know it certainly shifted my perspective.

Our currency is a joke, taking something else is a smart move. People like Peter Schiff are predicting a major economic collapse in the U.S. in the next five years. I don't exactly have any built up wealth tied up in the stock market at this point, but my parents do and are probably going to roll over to something like what this guy suggests: overseas utilities and precious metals. This nation's wealth is a debt-based mirage that is losing international trust. Thank you federal reserve which shouldn't legally exist in the first place.

Seriously, it's not like anyone else's economy will be unaffected if our's crashes and burns. The joy of a global economy.

could be, but a very well respected analyst predicted that real estate would go way down in two years, he made this prediction 2 years ago, and there has been no economic depression. analysts can be wrong

It's hard not to when the forum is so dead. Is necromancy based on the age of the last post or the vicinity of the thread to the top?

Post by **odditude** » Sat Dec 22, 2007 12:53 am

The positioning of the thread is determined by its last post, FitzRoy.
