A week later Lehman's went under and RBS's shares were at 10p and they looked like they might be nationalised. In the net!
      At that point you should pile in, you'd be getting 10x what you got before... grrrr
      Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

        Yeah but I was envisioning them being completely nationalised and me getting a token 2p for my shares.
