   Well, because that was who he was talking about…a black man in a string vest sitting on a porch in Alabama… a fairly common sight, hence the immediate understanding of the reference….are you offended? For yourself? On behalf of the string-vested black man?

   @theparsonsman, really? a concatenation of rogue traders name Jerome Kerviel and Nick Leeson using Barings’ error account 88888. Not that difficult to figure out. In fact I feel my IQ just dropped a little posting this.

    How is it that I now understand more about the financial crisis from watching this than I ever have done watching an interview with an investment banker?
