						 You've got to look at very long-term impacts, with people out of their homes for months or years. The magnitude of the population displaced is very troubling. You look at 'OK, how many of our hospitals might be functioning?' There are pockets of New Orleans that still don't have power. Where do you move these people if you have to move them? We don't have answers right now.

						 You've got a lot of factors here all coming into play... Oil is having a negative impact and the pre-announcement news from Viacom was significant. You also had all the banks reporting strong earnings yesterday, but yet they're selling them off two days in a row, and we're near the end of the quarter and you've got portfolio managers wanting to cash out of the rally's recent leaders.
