    That sounds bad. I have totally missed that they were in bad shape again. That is a huge downgrade, things must be close to collapse down there. It sure bears watching closely.

    Yes this is their 2nd go-a-round now. It got pertty bad down there just a few short years ago. Actually they just got a stay on a loan than was due and they can't pay. It will hold off default for a short while longer....but who knows for sure....

    That can't be....all my liberal friends say that they are the model for a speedy recovery after an economic reset.

    Maybe it just a double dip recession....you know....like they predict here....

    Hate to say it... but y'all might want to have a quick peek in one of these things...
