U.S. Scientist Sees New Ice Age Coming The Washington Post By Victor Cohn; Washington Post Staff Writer Date: Jul 9, 1971 The world could be as little as 50 or 60 years away from a disastrous new ice age, a leading atmospheric scientist predicts.

New Ice Age Coming---It's Already Getting Colder Ocean Floor Sediment Holds Clues to Future New Ice Age on Way---It's Colder Already NEW ICE AGE Los Angeles Times By GEORGE GETZE Date: Oct 24, 1971
Some midsummer day, perhaps not too far in the future, a hard, killing frost will sweep down on the wheat fields of Saskatchewan, the Dakotas and the Russian steppes.
"Fannie Mae, the nation's biggest underwriter of home mortgages, has been under increasing pressure from the Clinton Administration to expand mortgage loans among low and moderate income people and felt pressure from stock holders to maintain its phenomenal growth in profits."
as you mentioned its not the small credit unions, or the smaller banks, its the large national banks that are having trouble, becasue they were afraid of politics from people like ACORN who would publicly deride them as racists if they didnt loan money to the poor...
Of course Im a troll... If you want to ignore the truth...
Democrats, Republicans, Banks, Home Builders, Brokers, Speculators, Greed all played a part in this, and if you want to ignore this then... how does that saying go...
"Those that fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it."
Bill Clinton admitted the democrats stopped any oversight of Fannie and Freddie: "CHRIS CUOMO, ABC NEWS: A little surprising for you to hear the Democrats saying, "This came out of nowhere, this is all about the Republicans. We had nothing to do with this." Nancy Pelosi saying it. She signed the '99 Gramm Bill. She knew what was going on with the SEC. They're all sophisticated people. Is that playing politics in this situation?
BILL CLINTON: Well, maybe everybody does that a little bit. I think the responsibility the Democrats have may rest more in resisting any efforts by Republicans in the Congress or by me when I was President to put some standards and tighten up a little on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac."
Im not completely blaming the democrats, but they certainly set up the framework for the housing bubble and the subprime mess we are in now
Is this before or after the discovery of the y2k bug that threw everything off? I would bet it doesnt since the wiki chart stops at 2001 and the discovery didnt happen until last year.

after the Gov't screwed it up in the first place...
Installing this product may wipe out your saved passwords/fields
...the ACLU gets it right.
goes back slightly further back than that...

I was in school in the 1980s and that was all they were talking about, so it may have been a "myth", but they sure were pushing it for some reason...
...what it takes to compile these schedules?
thats what I said gun manufacturer... they can say "no"
...for what the Gov't told them to do is like blameing the gun manufacturer for any misuse by the Police.
from the 1999 NYT article above...
"Fannie Mae, the nation's biggest underwriter of home mortgages, has been under increasing pressure from the Clinton Administration to expand mortgage loans among low and moderate income people and felt pressure from stock holders to maintain its phenomenal growth in profits."

"Those that fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it."
Or the Gov't and certain social engineering groups forcing the banks to make loans to people who wouldnt normally qualify under any circumstances...

but what's the difference between this and the quick launch bar in Windows?
The patriots were expected to win the Superbowl and "Mittens" was the clear favorite to be McCains running mate...
have you been paying attention to the global markets lately? It wasnt people investing that caused the meltdown but unadulterated gambling...
and to get the full value out of Blu-Ray, you will need a bigger TV
cost of distribution, both getting it to the pump and for people to buy it retail
diesel costs more, so the "savings" wont be as great, especially when the cost of the vehicle is more than the Prius.
If they could get the price down I would really be interested in it
Is this before or after the discovery of the y2k bug that threw everything off? I would bet it doesnt since the wiki chart stops at 2001 and the discovery didnt happen until last year.

there is a trend, except XP and 98 were both improvements over their predecessors (real and perceived).
Japan's Population 127,433,494/147,116 square miles
USA's Population 301,139,947/3,537,441 square miles
The USA has about 2.5x the population covering 24x the amount of real estate
There is no real advantage to upgrading to Vista or BluRay for most people
