Thinking about the carnage on its way to the SD housing market brings to mind that great scene from “Ghostbusters”:
Peter Venkman: This city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.
Mayor: What do you mean, “biblical”?

Dr. Peter Venkman: Exactly.
Dr Ray Stantz: Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Rivers and seas boiling.
Dr. Egon Spengler: Forty years of darkness. Earthquakes, volcanoes…
Winston Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave.
Dr. Peter Venkman: Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together – mass hysteria.
