A market will exist whether or not "we" want to create it and it  
doesn't matter how long lived it is.  Without some form of regulation  
(a bit hard since it would need to be applied globally), it is almost  
certain it will be extremely painful and folks who "shouldn't" make  
lots of money will.  So it goes.
