hay, god lets hope no depression, in 1929 my granddad lost everything, my dad was 18 at the time, so he told me what it was like to actually live through it, those were extreme times, hard to believe this group of folks could endure such times, most people I talk to have no idea who greenspan,benanke or the fed is, they are too busy watching american idol or e tv. they actually think their 401, 457, or roths are safe. ,I heard on the radio the other day that they did a quiz to highschoolers in great briton, they ask them if they knew who winston churchill was, 70% did not know. unfrigginbelievable. well I know most of the folks on this board will weather what ever storm blows in.
