Recycling as it operates in poorer nations.

Horse Truck?
 

I think that's a cow, not a horse!

That is definitely a moo-cow.

This thing looks like an evolved rickshaw. Quite good.

Yea thats Vietnam i think, judging by hte sign in the backgournd. I see plenty of shit like this while i'm over there. You see moterbikes with 6 people on them, cars with doors jammed open, bikes so loaded up you cannot see the driver....crazy stuff =)

Makes sense. The currency over there is just about as worthless as the Italian lira. Maybe more so.

I think a meal which one would plop down a few hundred dollars for in the States ran for several million dong(the Vietnamese currency unit) in 'Nam.

And yes, this message is being posted to you LIVE from Queens, home of the Amazin' Mets and my father's apartment, in which the top five millimeters of every exposed surface is fused with nicotine! (canned applause)

1 million Dongs (viet currancy) is about $100

Their currency is the <i>dong</i>?

Geez I'd be broke, I only have one...

So unless I'm wrong (which could be as my sleep schedule is more out of whack than Paul Reubens with his hands cut off), that means that 1 US dollar is equal to 10,000 Vietnamese dong.

Good God, they're ten times worse off than Italy!
