Post subject: Your input sought

I am about to do something that should drive a good bit more traffic to this auction message board. However, I would like to change the name of my forum. I intended, “Deep Thoughts By Patrick Byrne” to be a joke, as in the Saturday Night Live sketches, “Deep Thoughts with Jack Handy.” But I fear outsiders will not get it and think it pretentious.I have settled on a few choices and would like to leave it up to you original denizens:

Take 5 With Patrick
Take Five With Patrick
Take 2 With Patrick
Take Two With Patrick

Please vote.

Patrick

   Patrick, it would be very interesting to see a chapter on the carreer paths of SEC and DTCC emplyees over the past 2 decades after they left the SEC & DTCC. It would also be verry interesting to ask the captured journalists if they or there families have ever been compensated in any way from the hedge funds etc. Might go a long way in proving the Deep Capture theory. Keep up the good work. Also, your Board needs to know how inportant the work is that you are doing here. Overstock.com will be my supplier of first choice for all goods that I need personally as well as in my business.
   Thank You
