The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
My standard joke is that you could watch a live news broadcast and it could go like this:
Biff: "It's a beautiful day at the ballpark. The home team is warming up and ---"
BOOM!
Muffy: "Biff! Are you OK?? What was that???"
Biff [shaken]: "I don't know, Muffy! That was big! but there's one thing I can say ..."
Muffy: "What's that, Biff?"
Biff: "It wasn't terrorist-related."
They wish. When they actually do something, like sink the Cheonan, they deny it. Now, they’re supposedly cyber masters. I think there’s more to the story than what was said officially. They were not part of it, however.
Very unlikely that it be the North Koreans. If it was a hack, the NKs are probably taking the blame to get the Chinese off the hook. Right now the Chicoms are doing everything they can to keep their stock market from crashing. If they could harm ours, they could say that their efforts to stop their own collapse only failed because of America’s own stock issues.
Nah, aint’ the norks
Doesn't that have a familiar ring..

I think the group Anonymous was on-line last night wishing “Wall Street” a good day .... or crapping in their salad!
This expert thinks it was the Norks? Nah...
Latest I heard it was low-voltage on a main supply line which glitched equipment. But not low enough to activate diesel UPS.
There is no one that can be believed about any subject whatsoever.
it can never be admitted. If the people lost confidence in markets our nation would cease to exist as we know it. There would literally be no place to invest. What market would be safe? Trillions would be lost. Retirement plans would become bags of money hidden around the home. Companies wouldn’t be able to raise capital. Our jobless rate goes right through 20%. If this was indeed a hack it must be retaliated against but never admitted. Don’t forget a stoppage is but one form of a hack. Take it one step further to moving prices by phoney transactions. You’d have ceaseless trading halts. And further understand it wouldn’t have to end at equities.
