CH - OK not too bad given everything else around was sinking. But we've either got two or three weeks more of this at 3% drop per day till earnings season comes along to hopefully provide some relief or this is the end of the bull market for a long time. Misery time again but for how long? No Greenspan to drop rates again this time around. Now what........? Best regards, L

OK Clark, I'll call a truce too! But I doubt the Okinawan suicides were from 'humiliation of surrender' rather than fear. Okinawans might have seriously believed that their surrender would mean life on the Burma Trail, execution, torture, whatever, at the hands of the USA. They might not know that apart from some vicious My Lai actions, most USA soldiers would calm down and not go berserk on taking over villages. The fear is reasonable though in the case of the USA and NZ invaders, mostly unjustified. Mothers and children aren't so much into the indignities of surrender. They go for life. It's the TMT crowd which does the mad stuff [mostly]. TMT = Too Much Testosterone as Ramsey's wife would put it. Mothers are more into protecting children though even in NZ, there are occasional mother and child/chidren desperate and anguished suicides. Maurice
