I know I am pretty knowledgable of TTP and TTiP
and I love my job, From time to time I do get an education. This might be of interest to the rest of you as well.
Reporting San Diego also talked with David Hoffman on the TTiP and the postal service. “The World Trade Organization is sponsoring the European of the agreement. They are part of the European Union portion of the Agreement which want the postal service to be privatized in this agreement in order to be part of the full TTP package.â€
Part of the reason is that the postal service has been already privatized in some European nations, such as Germany and the United Kingdom.
The language includes preventing the postal service from developing banking services, which is in the process of being done. It would give services to people who are unbanked, but also be another line of service to keep the service going. This has been very successful in Japan.

4. 'TPP' = 'Trans-Pacific Partnership'
for future reference. 'TTP' in the news is mainly the 'Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan'.
It's not her fault. It's dyslexia.

31. That is ok.
I did make corrections. My dyslexia took over. It's
really bad when I got a bunch of alphabet soups. Usually, and did not do this, I just type the name on the Google and get my acronyms that way. Lesson learned, no shortcuts.
Now time to turn the computer on I got to see if I got the stats for Sid.
There are a few good thinks on the thread including the mention of an ugly cousin that I think is in reference to some TTiPAEIOU or something.

53. Many of them are actual experts in the field
It is kind of interesting to talk to them, and this one also surprised them.
I know most of us are NOT paying attention to the ugly cousin.
The thing that caught my attention though was the constant mentioning of coffee. I suppose that coffee is the new cute or adorable.
