@MFO Members: Just when I was getting ready to praise M* for the ability to link in printer friendly format in its new beta version, today I find it isn't working. On the M* Website you never know what your getting from day-to-day!

@expatsp & MFO Members: "Is this the end?" No, but it could be a short-term blow to an upward bias to the market. He better walk the tariffs back or he will half to deal with the Linkster.
