Koala, that post seems like a lifetime ago....but "only" 1.5 years ago. I think I can hang in there one, maybe a couple more weeks, if I just don't watch for the pot to boil.

At this point, five years is a long time to ponder a ride toward 95% of one's investment vanishing. I know, many have suffered much, much longer....

Thanks for the reminder to all (of the critical basics)....I just hope these basics are enough to get through the other issues....and SOON.
