Ok, so... with this ban on shorts expiring October 2nd (or 3rd?
Doesn't matter...) On the Legatus website, they listed their 2008 Fall
Summit here in Seattle on October 2-4.

The timing on this is really starting to freak me out. Like Reinhardt
said:

"from what I have seen the local (non-Rome) junkets tend to attract a
significant gathering of politicos in whatever area they take place
and the local stocks of companies in those locales and states are
affected in a negative way on a smaller scale "

Umm... WaMu anyone? If the shorts start going apesh*t again on the 2nd
and 3rd, we could see a collapse of WaMu that following weekend.
Assuming no bailout/merger for them in the meantime. Thoughts? Has
anyone directly emailed Reinhardt to ask what his thoughts are? Or to
see how life in the Bahamas is with his newly acquired millions?
