    Generally, I agree with Ted that Bernanke did a great job. Also, I'm sending Janet Yellen a case of vitamins:-)
  • I wish that the Feds had a whole lot more folks with his ethics and perspective.

    Ditto for all leaders in civil service. For that matter, leaders in industry too!

    Happy New Year Old_Joe!

    Break, break.

    Hey, when are we gonna get some rain?

    Can't take many more of these California Days...72 and sunny=).
  • Reply to @Charles: Very, very worrisome. We're SF/CA natives, and been through a number of droughts, but I really can't remember any year when we didn't have at least some rain & snow by this time. This morning's Chronicle said that San Jose's Almaden reservoir is down to 5% capacity. Don't look good...
  • Reply to @Old_Joe: We can trade some California sunshine for Oregon rain and snow.
  • Reply to @Sven: There's a market. In the future it will be a real one, as SoCal trends back to desert.
  • Xeriscape, bow before Dr. Carrier's picture occasionally, flush less (shower with friends??), buy land in southern Oregon (coastal, not inland; it's already dry) for your heirs. It's global warming, baby (I'm channeling Dick Vitale).
    I know my aging memory is faulty, but I swear we had more snow days off school in Indiana than they do now. I think there is a change.
    Heck, you were already off topic.
