I couldn't care less what my neighbours feed their kids, as long as it isn't one of my possessions and I don't have to pay for the resulting medical care. I also didn't realise I had to be a US citizen to have an opinion on what goes on there.

I would call it a nation that sells weapons and nuclear technologies to terrorist countries, strangely enough. If it was, itself, one of the terrorist countries, I would call it a terrorist country. You just made the definition between the two yourself. Thanks!

I didn't say that Chinese tools are necessarily the best, just that I'm not going to limit my choices due to COO. Also, I don't think any single country makes the best tools. However, if someone forced me to make such a simplistic, narrow-minded, ignorant generalisation, I would say that German tools are better.

Yes, I'd probably get the SO, unless I got a really good deal on the Gearwrench - actually a whole set of SO cabinet screwdrivers went for $60 shipped (new) on eBay recently....wish I'd had the $$.
