THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES, I2 Digital Equipment, Neal Cavuto - Nightly Business Report - Kidder Peabody. WOW - That clip was one hell of a TIME WHARP. Those Neutrenos must have been traveling faster than the speed of light :-) While that was a day from simpler times when you could not get through to your broker on the telephone, I don't remember there being any Credit Default Swaps, large derivative exposures, Sub-Prime Mortgages, Liar Loans, and interest-currency swaps. And the Uptick Rule and the Glass-Steagal Act still were still the law of the land. And most of all, the S&P Index in 1987 ended UP 5.5% after the crash. WEW - To think we all lived through that and can now look back at that time frame as "The good old days of simpler times". P
