GD, re:>>They need to just wipe out the whole oil sector and get it over with.It would be less painful than this.Just take every stock to 0 and start over.<< Funny you should mention. I was thinking today, as I was reading reports of Tokyo's "plummetting", "plunging", "free-falling" 5% drop (a 5% drop being something that the oil service stocks seem able to manage lately between cups of coffee), that if we could just get one of the major oil service companies to actually go out of business, maybe the market would react with a "mere" 5% drop and we could thereby limit our losses. Best of luck, John
