The stricken state of the global banking system has many grave implications but by far the most serious is the sudden deluge of so-called experts who are pimped around indiscrimnately by thoughtless PRs. A typical solicitation would be Dr (aren't they always doctors) x of Acme Software is available for comment on how the banking crisis could have been avoided (as could the hurricanes in the Carribean, earthquakes in China, the assasination of Martin Luther King and the English Civil War) if people had used his document management software.
I've got plenty of those in the last week but the best so far has to be the following (not the bit about 'gap years'):
Goodmorning,
Dr. Peter Slowe has a PhD in Economic Geography from Oxford University and is the former Chairman of the Labour Finance and Industry Group. He is the founder of Projects Abroad, the largest commercial gap year organisation in the UK or the United States.
If you would like comment regarding the banking crisis from Dr Slowe, please get in touch.
Many Thanks

Just exactly what kind of insight can I expect from the Doc who is no doubt a learned man with incisive and thought-provoking opinions? I would have thought working in a bank may have helped...
