Thank you.

This is the type of response we need around here.

Do you believe the falling dollar is contributing to the level of business?

I know it is, at least on our products. We used to sell our superior products against inferior local goods in many of these foreign markets. We usually had to overcome a large price differential. Right now, a company in Poland can buy our superior US built equipment at a price that is very close to (usually not less then) the inferior local products.

For the first time in a long time, we have been able to raise our export prices (in dollars) and we are using the additional cash to upgrade our facilities and equipment and to hire & train new people. This is significant, because the average age of our equipment and our people were both getting pretty high.

You and I signed up within a month of each other. Threads used to be a lot shorter, but seem to contain more "content".
