Dear list members,

Today I have recieved a text from an association of economics. The writer shows in the text that some people (Dr. ......etc) had seen the economic crisis in Asia before it happened. It is because, the writer means, that they (Dr....) use their  "gesunden Menschen Verstand" (healthy human sense) and "vernetztes Denken" (net-connection thinking) to rule their things...etc.

Here is part of the German original text:

'(...) weil sie sich nicht einfach an oekonometrische Modelle und Trendberechnungen mit einer Unzahl von Kennzahlen halten, sondern auch den "gesunden Menschenverstand" walten lassen, gepaart mit der Faehigkeit zu "vernetztem Denken".(...)'

Personally I don't think these two terms "gesunden Menschen Verstand" and "vernetztes Denken" can appear together in such a way, and I am also skeptic to this term "gesunder human Verstand". Someone has a different opinion to mine. So I want to hear the opinion from you. Thanks!

Wong
