7/14    Ahem, in case you've all forgotten... HOUSING ONLY GOES UP!
        BUY NOW BEFORE YOU'RE PRICED OUT!
        \_ Hold on, is this in response to the banking industry, where
           you believe that owning a home is a good hedge against a collapsing
           banking, or... that you are being sarcastic and waiting for the
           banking industry to drag down the housing market and laughing
           at people who are tied up to their homes?
        \_ you're doing a great job scoring points against your imaginary
           friends.
           \_ tom is imaginary?  Dang, that explains a lot.
              \_ Please provide a reference where I suggested to anyone that
                 housing only goes up, or that they should buy before they're
                 priced out.  Idiot.  -tom
        \_ I agree.  Now is a great time to get a good deal.  Unfortunately it
           is much harder to get a loan.  I've found quite a few cash flow
           positive investment properties lately.  Also, all of the big
           investment groups are gathering cash to buy up all of the available
           properties while everyone else shies away.
        \_ Why didn't the Great Swami warn us this was going to happen?
