To be fair to Dana, you'll find she's very much a realist and quite a deep thinker. I'm pretty sure you'll find she's had to deal with her fair share of internet loopies too.

I think the difference you'll find is that Dana holds out hope where you don't sugar.

My thinking is a lot like Dana's in this regard. I also don't think this crash is the end of the world. In fact, I'm positive it's not. I think it's a good thing really. We all just have to tough it out for the next few years. I believe the reason so may people find that concept so frightening is because they've never had to do it tough before.

Time to harden up people. Knuckle under and make the most of what you've got. Your life, like mine, wont end even if you do lose everything. It'll just be different.
