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.

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.
