Sea shipping can be amazingly cheap, I recall that Japanese steel mills 
got an advantage because they could ship coal cheaper by sea from Australia 
than US mills could ship it by rail from Pennsylvania.  

To keep this on a r.c.m. topic, is any Russian metalworking stuff showing 
up around here? I see Polish and Czech stuff, but I am sure that the 
Russians make some nice equipment (in fact some big stuff was for sale 
before the breakup). 

(followups set to r.c.m)
