While the world economy crumbles around us, we thought it'd be fun to gather for a drink or two and get some bearings on just how deep the credit market has sunk and how - if at all - we can pull ourselves out.

If, like your hostess, you're not entirely sure what a "credit market" is, Steve Zimmer will be on hand to give us the Econ 101. Space is limited 20 dialoguers, so please RSVP to reserve a seat.

Manhattan location deets TBA. Hope to see you there!
