The Nastaq down more than the DOW, and the bid/ask in Nastaq is set by the MM, this tell all the story.

Jay, RE: <<Just a thought:, but are the MM's marking down the bid/ask by 10-20%
after the close to make things look worse than they really are?>>

No, actually the after market trading is very illiquid. Thus, when you have a lot of sellers and no buyers, it makes the drop off look worse than it is. It is why I recommend that retail investors never trade after hours, and for the most part disregard after market quotes.
