    I told you guys, they are timing this to take down the regional banks so Goldman and the Morgans can gobble them up.

  4. I could not agree more with ya! I may be wrong, but I believe the mark to market crap falls under "Pillar 1" in the link I provided. BIS wants "Pillar 1" implementation to begin "immediately" - I think that is why the FASB was forced into implementing this ASAP...there will be no getting out of it this time!
