Roger,

You obviously don't get it! This is an opportunity for those that   
weren't effected by the mortgage problem to get on the band wagon and  
get themselves into a
long term debt  of about $300 a month for the next 4 or 5 years. *S*

I actually looked into it, but with the guidelines put out to qualify,  
but my 1990 Oldsmobile gets too good gas milage to qualify!
