| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601102&sid=agEOsO.7RNdw&refer=uk Summary: An Icelandic bank fails, so about 300,000 UK depositors lose all their money. The UK wants these people to be compensated in some way, but they don't want to do it themselves, so they're threatening to freeze the assets of Icelandic companies operating in the UK until Iceland's government ponies up the money. It makes perfect sense, in that gangsta rap music video sort of way. ___ ~ Ogordemir ~ "The sciences have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." ~ H.P Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu |
