We are waiting for KD to pull together on what we can do. It will get linked here as soon as it's available.
But seriously, don't expect it to "fix" how bad it got, I am getting the gist from what I am reading, there is no going back, but maybe we can do
something to not go any further down the rabbit hole.

What do we do? Hold on to our butts. Be prepared.
It's not a bad idea to have enough cash on hand to last a couple days. At this point, if you rely on credit cards, you need to IMMEDIATELY change
the way you live. If your bills and necessary purchases cannot be managed by your paycheck, it's time to kill the cable TV/internet/etc.
Have a few days' worth of nonperishable food on hand - three months' worth is better, but a few days is better than nothing. If your local grocery
store has trouble filling its shelves, you'll be glad to have a stash at home.
Keep your car filled with gas at all times. If gas stations cannot pay for gas shipments, you'll be hard pressed to find fuel.
If your bank fails (and I think few banks are immune to this possibility), it may be a day or three before FDIC insurance kicks in and your deposits
become available. For this reason, have some cash on hand.
No, this isn't just for investors. This is for everyone.

I'm reading up on the Denninger links and it is very interesting and frightening that we have been swindled so bad! Holy Crow!! Qui bono?
Someones on top.
I can only guess that we can expect some outages of services but I don't think we are going back to the stone ages. I am glad I live where I do
unless Canada gets to cold, but they will beeline it to the Outer Banks and Florida. And then they will bee line it back once they see what is going
on.
People are going to be wicked pissed. I hope we can channel that energy into some grand positive action.
I am serious about going shopping tomorrow.

Is someone going to post a link to the aforementioned document here?
I know some folks who are very worried about their investments and I know things are bad and will get worse before they get better, but I'm a little
vague on just what point this thread is making.

Unless we can freeze time, reverse gravity, or eat a strange magical mushrooms that make everything really lovely, then I think Alice is going all the

It's spiralling now.
It may be too late. It has gone global now; Osaka's exchange was just closed.

Are we not dead yet? ... Good, at least one more weekend in the offing.
This may help - or given the source, it may make things worse!
Bush to address nation about economic crisis -
Friday
President Bush, who has said little publicly during this week's prolonged market dive, will make a statement about the crisis tomorrow morning in the
Rose Garden, the White House said late today. Press secretary Dana M. Perino said Bush will "assure the American people that they should be
confident that economic officials are aggressively taking every action to stabilize our financial system." Bush will say that his administration has
"the necessary tools to address the problem" and that Treasury is "moving quickly to use new tools to improve liquidity, which is the root cause of
this problem," Perino said. "Americans should be confident that every effort is being taken to stabilize our markets," Perino said.
I still don't get the ''Urgent - All hands on deck'' message. Am I reading the right post? A lot of people waiting around a corner shop waiting
for it to open it seems.

Yes, I will post the link - they are estimating a few more minutes. The info is in the first links I posted, I think the document we are waiting for
is a last ditch effort to stop the madness, but I have no idea till we see it.

Trying to get confirm on the Nikkei - it tanked over 10% and I can't get any further updates. I think trading may have been suspended.

To those who want to run and get cash.
1. You will be making the situation worse, the last thing we need is a further bank run. And the GOV is protecting against this.
2. Try and buy gold, what you would need in a meltdown beyond other goods. See what the wait is to get it delivered. People are right you can buy it,
but how long til it's in your hand? WEEKS!(excluding ebay)
3.This Keeps the dollar useful so we still have a useful currency although a game of shadows and computer numbers.
4. Fact is GOV is panicking and without us even knowing has positioned to "Check Mate" on anything but food. THEY DO NOT WANT YOU TO HAVE GOLD!!!
Look at my other posts, I,m not an alarmist. The dominos though are concerning and the worst part is you are now in a position where all you can do is
hope.
So to refer to the top of my post, it doesn't matter anyway so keep your money in the bank and hope if we all do that it stabalizes. If not the money
in the coffee can will only be good for starting a fire!
Sorry for the rambaling and run on sentences.

If this does keep going, I also see the possibility of a pre-packaged 'Solution' being presented to us at some time in the near future.
One which has been 'in stock' for some time now.

Shoot - the document is up but the board is not holding.
Okay, I have to do a copy and paste cause the board is failing on and off. permission granted by Karl Denninger
To see the graph, (which will probably not copy and paste) here is the link if you can get in:
www.tickerforum.org...
We The People of the United States of America, in order to preserve, protect, and defend our “more perfect union,” must act now! The chart
below represents one day’s worth of trading on the Dow Jones Industrial Index, despite promises from Treasury Secretary Paulson, Fed Chairman, Ben
Bernanke and President George W. Bush that ‘confidence’ is being put back into the market. This is also despite the US Taxpayers giving up $700
Billion towards this ‘plan’ to instill confidence. Does this LOOK like confidence to you?
www.hrillc.com...
The fact is, NONE of this so-called ‘plan’ will work! The ONLY thing that WILL work is to restore TRUST to the system and the only way that can be
done is by forcing each and every one of these companies to pull their ‘assets’ out of hiding. No more phantom accounting. No more legalized
fraud! It must be done now, within 24-hours or the United States will follow Iceland and worse. Worse because we are the world’s reserve currency
and we will literally pull down each and every country on the planet. Worse yet, is for those of us who are Americans, WE WILL LOSE OUR COUNTRY
ENTIRELY!!!!
Each and every one of you reading this must right now, and continuing until this is done, call your Congressman, call the White House, call every
single media outlet, every newspaper, every person you can possibly tell and DEMAND RIGHT NOW THAT OFF-BALANCE SHEET FRAUD BE STOPPED EFFECTIVE
IMMEDIATELY!
THIS IS OUR ONLY HOPE.
AMERICA’S FUTURE NOW LIES IN THE HANDS OF HER PEOPLE
Her government has not only led us to this place, but has completely failed to protect her.
WILL YOU ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN?
