awwww,c'mon Richard. The tremendous failure of y2k will have economic impacts that will engulf everyone. This is not the political attack of the willies we're talking about. The Plunge Protection Team was put into place in 87 by Alan, while Clinton was still prancing around in Arkansas' "big house." GreenPrick knows it was his responsibility to assess, remediate and testtesttest. He admitted privately refusing to do it because he didn't want to cause a panic. THOSE ARE HIS VERY OWN WORDS PRIVATELY UTTERED. Clinton doesn't understand how to tie his shoelaces without assistance (or assistants?) He doesn't know how to wash stains out of dresses, nor does he know how to lead, or any number of other things he gets credit or grief for the results thereof. No, the common thread, the one who saw, understood, shrugged and shuffled away is Alan. The BIS gets it. ECB gets it. Saudi's get it. Bill Gate's Got it. Russia gets it. Japan gets it. China gets it. Rubin got it. IMF's Camdessus gets it. Kissinger gets it. Thatcher gets it. Just what does Greenspan think he is going to preside at the helm of after inevitable panic hits? He physically can't write THAT many social security checks or sign that many bond coupon vouchers. Get real, Richard. Clinton is just a puppet, and a woodie-en one at that. This isn't about creation of money or running printing presses. I never saw a greenback that tasted good with salt and pepper and gravy. THIS IS ABOUT SURVIVAL. You'll see. And so will Alan. Alan has no idea how long his sentence is in purgatory. But the witness impact statements, however long or short each individual one is, should keep him occupied for at LEAST the next 3 billion years.
