Some of those assets were never worth 100%. Remember how part of the problem is repackaging and regrading of the substandard tranches to get a better rating? Pick up this month's Esquire. There's a good layman's article about how the math was abused in the regrading.

Trash cannot recover value it never had.]]>

"I was still sitting their with a $2,200 loss." (WTF? In this case it's "there" not "their".)

Why are we still waiting for Liam's biography? If SA can't do a simple biography in six months, then why should we bother with anything published on the site?

Microvision's No Show Hands the Pico Projector Market to TI http://seekingalpha.com/article/82223-microvision-s-no-show-hands-the-pico-projector-market-to-ti?source=feed#comment-191215 191215 SA just published another article by Liam and they still haven't presented the readers with his biography.

Six months is more than enough time for a professional to abbreviate their resume and e-mail it in. Even a grade-school student can get a biography done in one semester.

What does that tell a researcher about the usefulness of Seeking Alpha?
