RE: Panic!

"We are in the second phase of the bear market- selling is still orderly.
Margins have started to be called and some die-hard bulls are starting to
experience fear for the first time. The next phase will be ugly- PANIC SELLING.
Wonder what news item will provoke that."

I think SI should scan all daily messages for CAPS and "!" usage. Then we could develop an ocillator for market sentiment. Extra weighting awarded for the use of profanity, the words "MY GOD","MY WIFE'S GONNA KILL ME",and "I'M BACKING UP THE TRUCK AT THESE PRICES". Also key words "college fund","short bastards","complain SEC",and my personal favorite, "What's happening?!!" :)
