We've heard about this short-selling and, you know, and it's in this e-mail as well. And we had the Government instigating ... or in ... the Central Bank instigating an inquiry in relation to Anglo. But isn't it not the case that the actual short-selling of stocks and the banks that they were short-selling - if they were short-selling - if they were spreading the rumours then to benefit from it, that they all went bust? Maybe there was ... was there ... could there have not been a grain of truth in the fact that they looked at the numbers of the banks, seen what was coming down the road and were saying, "This isn't good, folks", you know?
