Me either. Looking at the Yahoo Dow chart, from Sept 28. 1987 to Nov. 30, 1987 it dropped 33%. In a span from 1973 to 1975, it dropped 44%.

From Sep. 26, 2008 to Oct. 10, 2008 it dropped 24%. Even if you look at the peak from Oct. 2007 of around 14000, it’s gone down 33%.

I’m not trying to downplay what’s going on, but there have been similar drops in the past. And yes, I understand that we may not be at the bottom of this decline yet.
