As the inventor of Globe On a String™©® I am WAY ahead of curve. It was touch and go there for a minuit, but the god like feeling of fishing a string through a planet and suspending it at my sole will, but well ok, I keep it in the livingroom and anyone who visits,but well again, ok, actualy everybody is wierdly intimidated by a Globe on a String™©® and wont give it a swing, though I'm telling you megalomania does have it's moments, and Globe on a String™©® is perfect for those moments where you realy want to take a disproportionate view of the world.
