    Was it necessary to post a note to yourself? Maybe you should try this?

    Do you realize that you've just posted an admission of ignorance so breathtaking that it disqualifies you from commenting on any political or economic threads from here on out?

    If you live on land, you live near a fault. An active fault? Well, that's another question.
