                According the FCO the UK is the 5th largest exporter in the world, apparently we export more per capita than the USA or Japan and we are only 2nd to the USA as the largest overseas investor.

In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
