I used to know a trader at GS who almost without never managed to let 
any introduction to someone get by without his mentioning he owned the 
house in Port Washington that formerly belonged to McMahon. While it may 
sound petty I would like to imagine him facing foreclosure along with 
tens of thousands of others right now.
Of course this is the same individual who thought milk was a 
manufactured product like Pepsi so maybe I should just be satisfied with 
that.
