Post #97,432 by ben_tilly 4/20/03 1:21:59 PM Reply	True But did you buy more than you would have, because you can afford it right now? Are the people who are refinancing taking advantage of the opportunity to get cash back? Whether or not they are, the fact is that many people are doing these things, and the aggregate effect of this is good short term and possibly scary long term.

Post #97,515 by cwbrenn 4/21/03 1:09:02 AM Reply	Yeah, it's funny. I mean, down south you hear about how rude the northerners are, but so far everyone around here has been really friendly. They do drive more aggressively, though. :) "We are all born originals -- why is it so many of us die copies?" - Edward Young

The freeways of Los Angeles County, I have driven in the North East, and "aggressive" is not the term I would use. I know "aggressive", I do that, every day, and that's not what they do there. I prefer to stay here where the drivers are relativeley sane. [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]
