heinz, a notable quote from the book you recommended that I just finished reading.

"The Great Crash 1929" by John Kenneth Galbraith

"A bubble can easily be punctured. But to incise it with a needle so that it subsides gradually is a task of no small delicacy. Among those who sensed what was happening in early 1929, there was some hope but no confidence that the boom could be made to subside. The real choice was between an immediate and deliberately engineered collapse and a more serious disaster later on." (sould familiar?)
