| #5 ^^^ B., I'm having a moment, can you ask him if he can still spell triangulation and if he thinks it might work for us now with Russians against the Chinese? |

| #3 It has long been clear to me that the Chinese practice a superb "long game" business strategy against US industry. It is based on a simple understanding of our corporate inability to envision "strategy" versus immediate competition since we define success in near-term market share and ROI profit. The Chinese define a product or product group, copy/steal design, produce product that is comparable in performance and quality, but cheaper, by lesser labor cost and even secret subsidy of sub-components and raw materials, despite factoring in transport cost. Over time, achieve total market dominance over a sustained period of years. Domestic and allied competitors cease the product line over time due to lost market share, until China and its subsidiary companies, achieve market monopoly. Then, the slowly decrease product quality and performance, while increasing profit and raising product pricing, recouping front-end loss from years earlier and enjoying monopolistic advantage in long term contracting. They then protect market dominance by defeating any new US start-ups with a mix of political/regulatory interference domestically, denial of sub-components they control and intimidation of near-peer businesses in the West that might consider a renewed product line inside the US/Western allies. Sounds crazy? - Take a look at all the major end-items and product lines that ONLY exist in China now. Was it that way 15-20 years ago? Consider the strategic, industrial vulnerabilities this has created in America and West. De-industrialization has helped destroyed the middle class American Dream and massively weakened the "Arsenal of Democracy" of our grandparents day, and done so willingly by witting and unwitting dupes in Washington and industry in search of seemingly profitable choices, many of which and forms of long-term industrial and economic suicide! |

| #2 In 2013 I had to replace a section of galvanized pipe in my well. It had been there since the well was drilled, about 40 years. 3 years later that section failed and I lost the submersible pump. The pipe came from China. I replaced it with PVC and a new pump. I was lucky as the pipe and pump didn't block the well. |

| #1 How much dope could you smuggle in from China if a 50 lb box of hot dipped galvanized nails were all under weight by 1 gram and there are say 2500 to 5000 nails in a 50 lb box? How well do dogs and detection equipment work on things like that or gold or cash? |
