Yeah, I'm sure it'll be a 50-point panic! <S> Hell, they meant even drop <gasp> 1%. I'm an engineer, through and through. Systems are only interesting when they're somewhat predictable. I want people to behave predictably irrationally, especially cocky rich boys at Government Sachs. It provides opportunity when people are caught up in chasing stocks for momentum on the short term (weeks to months), if in the long term (years) you're pretty sure the reality of peak credit will take them down, sooner or later. However, "later" is getting pretty late now. Need it to happen before I lose interest, or other factors like currency issues make offsetting shifts. `BC
