      Not yet. But interestingly, we were told at one of the mills we went to, that the cost of running the projectile looms was rising as a result. I did not ask why......

        @Giles thanks for the reply. Hope it stays not yet. I know there are bigger concerns in this whole situation (not for discussion here) but it would be a shame for IH to take the hit for something that’s clearly not your fault.

          @ARNC said in Ask Giles and/or Alex Anything:

          Prompted by this, should we expect a bunch of monochrome UHFs this year? More seriously, is the Iran situation having any direct impact on IH production?

          Reminds me of this.

              I have a few in Japanese, for when I am in Japan. We don't really use them in the west any more, though

                @Alex Times sure have changed, I remember early in my career that receiving your first box of cards was a crowning achievement , it meant you had some level of importance and that others NEEDED your contact- was something special.

                And now when someone asks for a business card I sit and think- "Is this the 2000s or what??"

                        I remember when I was studying Japanese a couple decades ago, there was a whole chapter in the textbook devoted to the language/etiquette of exchanging business cards ("meishi no koukan"). Glad it's still a thing over there.
