"Dead Cat Bounce?"

Doesn't that expression more often refer to equity markets? These vultures are snapping up distressed BOND debt, not equities. Bonds are generally still in "bubba bubble" status, except for these distressed by scandal one's they're talking about, right?

P.S. You'll always be famous for your shuttle thread!!!

It is a reprehensible turn of phrase, IMHO.

You have gone way beyond my knowledge and expertise in asking that question. When I saw the article I was just fascinated with the idea that there is this much pent up demand, ready and willing to bust out at the right time.

Thank you for your comment about the Columbia. You know what they say about all fame. BTW, I think the thread, Observation on TPS damage on Orbiter, that is running with over 2500 replies is where the action is. I have to wonder how many NASA engineers and others are taking notice. FR's reach is far and wide.
