What Would Forrest Gump Say About the Real Estate Crisis? It’s hard to believe that it’s been 15 years since Forrest Gump appeared on Hollywood’s big screen, sharing his interpretation on some of life’s most complex issues.

B. It's not over yet. We still have a ways to go before we're through this.
C. There's another major crisis just waiting to happen.
D. Other (please explain).
Until we clean up the foreclosure and unemployment mess, in CA we have a long way to go. And potentially there's another crisis just waiting to happen. So I say..."B."

Thanks for the reply!
