The economy and what's snot

You know the way the economy (Irish, EU, world etc.) is always growing by x number of percent each year? Will this go on forever, or will humans eventually reach a stage where the things they make for each other might be changing as time goes by, but they will have roughly the same monetary value? Will economic growth continue until the entire country\planet is covered in concrete or until we all become Borg, in which case the economy will become kind of obsolete? What will happen when the economy stops growing?

Where exactly does snot come from? I'm talking mucus here. I always thought it came from underneath the skin at the back of the nose. I can understand how sweat comes from underneath the skin because it's watery and can easily come up through the pores. Snot is much more viscous though, and I can't imagine how it would easily come up through the skin.

economies and the growth thereof can be directly associated with 100 metre records.

the faster a man runs influences the growth of economies in liberal democracies

(see Eastern economies V Western economies and related tables of 100 metre record holders. the west have dominated the record tables and this is reflected in its economic growth)

So the success of female athletes from East Germany in the early 80s was a sort of "shot in the arm" for their economy then?

George Hamilton actually said something funny once. Following the success of the Chinese athletes (in '96 I think), at the women's 3000m at the next championships he said, as 3 Chinese women took off past Sonia O' Sullivan, "Now we'll see if their performance in Atlanta was just a flash in the wok". I thought that was fairly good.
