Nothing and Some More

Size matters

Because Asians generally have smaller hands than North Americans, products developed for Asia often are even tinier than those built for the West.

So, This Is Heaven: Norway

Of course, the measurements don't take into account the fact that darkness falls by 3 p.m. half the year and tax rates swallow up to 60% of your income. Also escaping the statisticians' notice are new social strains created by a sudden influx of immigrants into a longhomogenous nation.
"The one thing people say they don't have enough of is time--money and material goods are way down the list of what people want," says Jensen, himself bemused by the elusive commodity.
