Hmmm.. nice idea Ron,

but if I'm not mistaken, don't most of us have less than nothing in the pot to contribute with at this point in time? Certainly I can't see the Europeans contributing much to such a scheme as they're all busy scrambling for the last loaf of bread to come off the press. Uncle Sam is not much better.

China, Russia, Germany and possibly India are the only ones left on the planet with any money. And I don't see that changing any time soon unfortunately.

Just my 2c

I have seen various guestimates from Forty Billion upto one forty Billion dollars so it would make sence to combine all our rescourses rather than just one country.
