I've been reading a little more about this. One stock dropped from $40 to $.01 in a minute. And went right back up in the next.

Doesn't give one much confidence in the markets, does it?

Nothing works any more, the rain was not due till late this afternoon, sure so the guys had to load up all their tools and stop working on the deck. Weathermen, bah humbug.
