Wow.

True... IIRC the interest rates jumped in the early 80's (leading to 14% and > 30 year mortgages and CD's paying 17% at times) based on what happened in the 70's. Should have spelled it out better in the original post where I said "and finally double digit"... When the Fed finally decided to try to kill inflation by raising interest rates.

Something else which I don't think many remember about the 70's. The bear market which started in 73 or 74 saw the market drop nearly 50% and it took nearly 6 years to recover to it's previous high. Not a pretty sight... and a LOT more people have money in the market today than in the 70's.

Does that mean the 997 will have head stud issues?
