Oh, by the way, there's no button for it anymore, but the "Who's Online" function has been reinstated.From the main 'HHW Community Forums' page [on the new board], scroll all the way to the bottom and click on 'X Guests, X Users.'
You may have two e-mail addresses now, but I have many others for you, which you probably haven't had for some years. Happy to list them all for you, if you like
George, if anyone wants to link directly to the board, it's www.haineshisway.com/smf
I don't know about anyone else, but today's notes on the homepage (www.haineshisway.com/) are still yesterday's notes. I had to go to the column archive to read today's notes. I'm just sayin'.

No, Congress has listened to the plight of Main Street voters getting crushed in an unexpected financail catasrophe. Barring the more than usual incompetence of Washington, the Rescue Plan buy-ins should actually make a profit for the tax-payer, and should that fail, there is the" tax the company" fall-back already included in the legislation. The true villains in this mess are the original con-men who orchestrated the bum mortgages to begin with. The faulty paper has long since been rebundled and off-loaded to the nation's major financial houses, and much of it has been then incorporated into other financial instruments held by Mutual Funds which are in turn held by pension plans. The bad-guys who caused the problem are, for the most part, long gone and out of financial harm. The second class of Villain is the greedy developers who over built in most of the major real-estate markets in this country - and while they now suffer as their inventory remains unsold, their efforts to unload new construction has depresssed the entire housing market. By buying up, at a discount, mortgage paper in danger of default, the government should be able to put a major damper on additional foreclosures that would exacerbate the problem. Remember, once real estate values fall more than 10%, most recent buyers find themselves in houses worth less than their mortagage; with values having fallen more than 40% in many areas, large numbers of home-owners are now trapped into immobility.der Brucer

I had to go to the column archive to read today's notes. I'm just sayin'.I see today's notes - so you'd probably have to clear your cache or something. It happens occasionally but not very often. And I must say, even though it was so crazy around here, this web hosting switch to the new server upgrade has resulted in very fast speed here at haineshisway.com.
that green "loading" thing.
