As a footnote, Liar's Poker (Michael Lewis) documents the crash of the 80's, published in the early 90's. Want to know the scary part? It was the same thing -- collateralized mortgage obligations rated by Fannie/Freddie, sold and re-sold in a money-frenzy.

Anyone want to bet we'll be playing this game again in 20 years ... and people will still be surprised then?
