411 billion in *losses*??  Does anyone else have issues with this
figure?  To give some perspective, that is more than the reported 2003
earnings of Citigroup, Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, Morgan
Stanley, Wells Fargo, Prudential Financial, Merrill Lynch, American
Express, Bank One Corp, Hartford Financial, and US Bancorp all
*COMBINED* with about 10 billion to spare.
