Well, I hope I can figure out how to do a poll.

I think they've had a break the last few weeks so I think it'll be in the 6-8 range today or next week, maybe averaging 5 per week.

I was looking at a graph of bank closures over history. Actually, while the banks they're closing now seems like a lot of banks to be closing, i.e. a sign of Bad Banking Health, during the S&L crisis in the 1980's they closed about 5 times as many banks - literally.

I figured the poll thing out ! 8) almost.

oh yeah, here's the FDIC website "Failed Bank List" page -
