docron Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 [it's been so long, that in fact, please see below... from 3 October 2008] [where my ultra cool formatting was initially shot down by the admins] [i, of course, had forgotten about this until now]. [so admins, a free pass will be nice about now]... Posted by docron on 03 October 2008 - 08:46 PM in Ramble On Nathan, on Oct 1 2008, 02:10 AM, said: I got two peeves tonight: 1. As most of you know, the USA's Economy is... well... dead. Wall Street has just taken the biggest loss in its history (eat it, 1929!). Correction: worst loss points-wise... but not worst loss percentage-wise... that was in 1987. I don't think I have to elaborate on which one is actually worse. Oct. 28, 1929: loss of 12.82% (down 39.33 points) (ranked 2nd-worst loss) Oct. 19, 1987: loss of 22.61% (down 508.00 points) (ranked 1st-worst loss) Sept. 29, 2008: loss of 6.98% (down 777.68 points) (ranked 17th-worst loss) 1987 crash: It's bad, but its been worse 17 times and obviously you still have enough money to afford internet and a computer... so quit freaking out. Edited to add my own pet peeve: Tommy's Pet Peeve #458 The admins nicked my [ultra_cool_modern_formatting] [ ] Oh well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
