rc,
I am writing an exerpt in italics from the link that I posted in the opening post.
One of the major reasons that the government helped out in the Bear Stearns situation,â Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson Jr. testified at a Senate hearing this week, âwas to avoid throwing it into bankruptcy with all the credit-default swaps
So if the lehman had some swaps.... they would have been saved?

Quote from rcj:
All that paper is gonna burn in Hell ....

Hmmm ....i see ur point, bro. So if L had leveraged up some more
with more swaps and a bunch shady countr parties then
maybee they woulnt have had to go to Hell after all...
works for me...
