Hi Ray, happy to help out.... ORBIS sounds like a service. I've used a few of the Interlibrary loan services over the years. "The Money Market" does a good job of explain the FED's use of Repo's and Reverse Repo's in helping to manage liquidity flows, in the banking sector. I think that I've heard of Powells book store, it seems to me it was written up in the New York Times last year, I think the context of the article was that Powells had a more unique atmosphere than some of the big chain stores. btw bit of possible good news on Argentina,: Getting reports that some of the reasoning behind the recent "optimism" over the Argentine situation comes from talk surrounding a debt swap into longer maturities and possible loan given to the ailing country. While the details are not clear yet, we have read some indication that a multinational collaboration of banks may be willing to provide up to $3 bln in financing to get Argentina through year end.
