Ben Lomond -- Scotts Valley, Felton, Santa Cruz. Ring any bells? :)

That stuff is junk...

I'm over in Ben Lomond if you guys don't mind climbing the hill.

Agree.

I don't see why. He's probably one of the few unfettered voices out there right now. It's not really like shouting fire in a theater as those who can't afford to pay their mortgages aren't going to be any more able to do so due to his statements or lack thereof. The only group that...

It's not a big deal yet. They're just trying out ideas and talking the talk. It's when Freddie and Fannie start screaming that action will be taken. BTW, I believe the appropriate term for what he is suggesting is a "soft landing." :)

Well, That's easy. Just lower interest rates enough to cover the problem. ;)

It's expiry. You need to make allowances for this kind of thing.

It's interesting but the writing has been on the wall for the housing market for a few years now. I'm not at all surprised that a multi-decade veteran cashes his chips out right now. Especially since he can reload with options every year. Best of luck with trying to stoke the fire. I think...

I don't see it as the same at all. But I'm not prepared for another round this evening. :)

Rocking now...

I don't have NYMEX or ECBOT. Globex is up.

I take your point. :) Having said that, I do actually think it's a major flaw in our system as capitalism has perverted government by the people for the people into government by the lobbyists for the corporations -- with little or no accountability by the malefactors. But that's really a...

I guess what you are saying is we should have a higher minimum wage than we do. I agree. Talk with those who elected the Republicans who blocked the minimum wage increases for the last 10 years or so. It's not the system that's broke. It's the people we elect to "represent us" that are the...

This is absurd. Have you heard of the Kyoto protocols. Did you read the paper today about Britan setting carbon limits independently of anyone else's decisions. It's not "just" the UN. It never was the UN and you obviously have some sort of other agenda as you continue to try to spin the...

Dude, Researchers have been funded by oil companies for years to disprove the theory and have failed. It's been peer reviewed to death by the scientific community and, based on our knowledge today, there actually is a general consensus about the matter. I really don't follow what you are...

Here's an article from last year: http://www.agu.org/pubs/crossref/2006/2005GL025539.shtml 25%-35% over the last 25 years is the estimate that's attributable to solar warming in the paper... That's a lot of global warming that isn't attributable to solar effects.

Um... No it's not hard to reconcile. You just do the math. The difference is large. That's why people are getting nervous. Really, if you want to discuss it "intelligently" spend a bit of time researching the facts of the matter. I had this argument out about 6 months ago with my dad and...

Just another distractor post. Clearly, you haven't read the expose's of this flick that were linked in the thread. Why not go back and link them and then come and defend the flick then? Anyway, there have been a number of studies done to show that solar warming does not account for more...
