The US power system’s decay inevitably leads the decline of Western imperialism. Hopfully it will incrrease the determination of Asia, where most earthpeople live, to develop world institutions and a world currency (the eartha.)

Yikes, what a ride! European stocks are down 5% and the U.S. is down at 9,600 (Dow)and 1,800 for NASDQ. Looks like an epidemic to me.

Politicians and economic experts keep saying here in Finland that everything will be fine. This crisis will not affect our banking system. We too have a housing bubble of historical proportions, but it doesn’t matter.
No banks are in danger here. They are completely secure. Move along, move along…

Odd….how a little bit of sunshine gets that MOLD crumbling…isn’t it? Imagine, what a hot sun would destroy.. This is when “global warming” almost seems like a good idea….a nice, hot, dry, cookin’ sun. That would do it, “you betcha”.
