Jamie found an interesting site that has many charts and graphs about the strange May 6 stock market plunge and rebound. There's a lot of information to consume over there, but it does a pretty good job of showing high-frequency trading is getting to be a real problem.

    Sorry, the first think I thought of was Adobe Flash causing my browser to crash. The second thing I thought of was that this was a Flash animation of the stock market crash. Both are incorrect, I hope I wasn't alone in my mistake.
