>>I wondered what the heck would happen when the debt levels were tested in a serious down market. They have now been tested and margin calls and market clearing have successfully handled the situation

A very small portion of the debt pyramid has been tested, and so far the results are not encouraging -- as a buyer of Globalstar debt at few pennies on the dollar, I think you will agree. The acid test will come when the so-called subprime debt market as well as the home mortgage and home equity markets are tested.
