Not hurting me. Didn't hurt when it went down (other than vacations to the USA) and doesn't hurt me on way up. Everything adjusts in time. It is the rapid change that is the problem. A slow rise over several years would have been absorbed much easier (although it might have been like the experiment with the frog and boiling water--put the frog in boiling water and it jumps out; gradually raise the temperature of the water the frog is in toward boiling and it dies). Maybe we need shock treatment to improve productivity etc.
