ParticipantWho would think there are an infinite supply of 32 bit integers?
Allow me to re-phrase: Who woulda’ thunk that we couldn’t just add more internet addresses as needed? I mean, certainly Internet addresses are easier to create than say something like oil right? All you do is add a few more bits, right? If you’d have bet the inventor of the Internet (Al Gore or that other guy) back in the mid-90s that we’d run out of Internet addresses before we ran out of oil, what kind of odds do you think you would have gotten?
In any event, I thank you for the hubris.

ParticipantSo far I agree with capeman. The Fed can’t bailout the banks on its own. It will take an act of Congress for that. They’ll have to create RTC#2. We’re not there yet. We may get there later.
Perhaps a re-nationalization of Fannie Mae. Shareholders will be slaughtered.

ParticipantThis is why we DO NOT need democrats in the white house. They will have a huge bailout and tax those of us who have worked hard to earn the money that we richly deserve. Tax the responsible and hand it to the bums who not only chose to live beyond their means but then complain that they are not continuing to get the free ride that they have recieved in the past 2-3 yrs of their 0 down negAm mortgages!
