...all ye who enter here


When you're foretelling the end of the world, could you at least use correct grammar?

"Stocks were down Wednesday morning as worrisome reports from tech companies like Apple and Motorola fueled doubts that the Fed's emergency interest rate cut will not be enough to keep the economy on track."

"fueled doubts that [whatever]...will not be enough..." (emphasis added). Don't you mean doubts that it will be enough? Or maybe fears that it will not be enough? Next they'll probably misuse literally and really set me off.
