Howdy Horace,
Seems more like UBS and Deutsche bank were playing poker in a high stakes
game and suddenly discovered the house was using a pinocle deck.
They complained to the bartender, only to learn he was kin to the guy
dealing the cards.
I think it showed very poor sportsmanship for the Swiss to complain that
somebody was cheating. After all.. in order for UBS and Deutsche bank to
discover they were being conned.. they first had to "mark" the cards.
It's got to the point where ya just can't trust anyone that ain't kin...
and maybe..well.. err...

The mortgage mess hadn't gotten totally out of hand yet, as I recall,
and Switzerland isn't involved in Iraq or Afghanistan.
OK , it's just kooks then?
