#1 US catches cold, the rest of the world gets pneumonia. And they would love to see Hussain Osama as the next president. Idiots.

#3 Maybe spend less "helping the helpless", and more on infrastructure/education in the future?

#4 It's irrational, therefore there is little you can do to 'stop' it. It's like a hurricane. You need to weather it out and save your resources for the afterward instead of throwing it away in the wind. Time to plan for 'recovery' not worry about the immediate storm. Time to stop the process of inflating the currencies and retain the value of the stuff you have so that the 'opportunities' that will appear can be exploited. Let those who panic lose their position so others less anxious can prime the system recovery with viable currancy.

#6 To Procopius2k - one of the best pieces of advice I've heard in a while. Took my anxiety levels down a notch or two.

Peace man.
