    Just watching it.. Mesmerising.. It can be the only reason that Cowen and FF are procrastinating on cuts.. They too are hypnotised.
    Just doing the timing thing here..
    It seems to rise by about €1000 per sec
    Thats €60,000 per min
    Thats €3,600,000 per hour
    Thats €86,400,000 per day.

    That means by October 1st (92 Days) it'll be: €7,948,800,000 extra

    Or €72,506,030,522 in total...

    SAID HANRAHAN by John O'Brien (1878 - 1952)

    "It's looking crook," said Daniel Croke;
    "Bedad, it's cruke, me lad,
    For never since the banks went broke
    Has seasons been so bad."
    Be god! He predicted all this
