Mohave.net

I visit topix.net forums and about 10 days ago could no longer go to the site.  After several emails to topix and being able to access the site if I wasn’t using NPG, it appears that NPG cable has recently blocked access to topix.net.  Not intentionally, I’m sure, but never the less, as far as I can tell, you cannot visit that site using NPG cable.  I don’t understand enough to try to deal with NPG cable’s tech people but if you use NPG cable and cannot get to Topix.net, you are not alone. If anyone understands dns servers, which I have been told is the problem, and can get NPG to fix this, I’m sure it would be appreciated.

This file has apparently been removed from the web site.  Since it belonged to an investment company, they probably made them take it off.

 This pdf file from an investment firm has a lot of excellent charts showing what the credit bubble is all about and why it is far from over.  It’s 75 pages but a very good read.

I’ve kind of stopped posting on here because of hostility from the real estate groupies.  But there is so much “un” truth being tossed around, I decided to at least start posting links again.  I don’t know if any “real” people read this, but I hate to think the realtors “buy now before prices shoot up again” spiel is being bought by anyone.  The country is in trouble and no one should buy a house thinking they can sell it for a profit.  If you want to buy and can afford the payments and have money in the bank to cover the payments if you lose your job, then you should be OK.  Otherwise buying now is a real gamble and could create major financial problems in the near future for those unprepared.
