My reflection on  http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/03/opinion/03friedman.html?_r=2&src=me&ref=homepage is that globalization is being taken literally to new heights providing 3G access on the top of Mount Everest.  However, it's possible that even with all of the hype about China, India, and globalization it could be under hyped.
