And Sinclair died in 1984. See http://www.rcc.ryerson.ca/schools/rta/ccf/personal/hof/sincla_g.html for a bio..

A few things that have changed since then:

* Apple (hooray!)
* Japan actually helped prop up the ailing US dollar, not once but several times
* Airbus, headquartered in France, sells aircraft to many airlines, including U.S. owned ones.
* The Canadian dollar then was worth MORE than the American dollar.
* Toronto was a much, much prettier city then than it is today. <sigh>

Some facts are wrong, the references dated, and many people reading this now couldn't read then (or were not born).

Cheers,

Lloyd

For those of you curious about the dated references in the piece, it was originally broadcast on June 5, 1973.
