reactions to the drop?

Hey all,

Hope you don't mind a reporter using this list for a query. My name's Matt Quirk and I'm with the Atlantic Monthly. It's a little dark, but I had a cabbie tell me that reporters are hanging outside the banks, waiting for people to jump off the top of the buildings. Obviously that's a little over-the-top, but it got me wondering how the popular perception of what a crash is like on Wall Street and at the banks compares with what's actually going on.

Are firms keeping their eyes out for people who are getting a little freaked out by the price drops? Are buildings managers actually locking up the roof access? I was wondering, basically, if all hell is breaking loose or if all is relatively calm.

Any and all anecdotes or insights would be much appreciated. And I won't go quoting anybody without checking. Really just trying to get a sense of things.

Thanks,

MQ
