Seriously, do they train Wall Street traders to cover their mouths when stock prices drop? Is it part of the test or something?

I always thought it was an unconscious thing; they were dismayed and embarrassed at the drop so wanted to cover it up.

She's noticed that, too. (http://pastaqueen.com/halfofme/archives/2008/10/the_stock_market_-_a_photo_collage_in_three_acts.html)

Hee, that's very cute.

So, any chance we'll be seeing you at the Halloween party next month? Cause, uh, that would be very nice. :)

It's on my calendar, and I hope to be there. However, that is several million years in the future on my personal time scale, so we'll see. I agree that it would be nice...

If they cover their mouths, it's a recession. If they cover their entire faces, it's a depression.

Boing Boing also noticed (http://www.boingboing.net/2008/10/19/photos-of-facepalmin.html). Apparently there's a blog about it.
