Reading the interview with McCain and Obama on FOrtune Magazine July 7 2008 issue:

McCain.  I think the innovation that has the most impact on future economic growth is that of information technology.

Obama.  the president has to make sure that people arent hesitant to bring bad news. I always want the bad news first.  Good news takes care of itself.

Some Zimbabweans are already calling for higher denominations in a country where the official annual inflation rate has exceeded 2,200,000%.
