Sir it is understandable to wish for a return to normality as could be read from your "No quick end to the credit squeeze" May 2, but one of the very few good parts with any crisis is the opportunity it brings to reappraise whether we agree with "normality". This is a moment to step back and have a long deep thought of what we really want to get out from our financial sector and from our banking regulations, since just keeping us out of turmoil is clearly neither enough nor deliverable.
