I have NEVER said that I served in Vietnam.

Where you got that is beyond me, but I never said it.

I know numerous veterans that DID serve in Vietnam, but have never claimed that I did.

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Blue chips tumbled Wednesday, dragged down by surging oil prices and weakness in producers of metals and other commodities.

The sell-off in commodities happened amid new reports that China would be taking measures to slow its rapid economic growth, which would, in turn, hurt demand for copper, steel and aluminum.

"A slowing Chinese economy would put a damper on commodity prices," Schrader added. "People are concerned that slowdown would hurt the global economy."

Will this mean lay offs in the copper, steel and aluminun industry. Yup. Where am I going with this? I'll let you take a guess.
