Even though the majority rules, in a democracy, every effort must be made to respect minority rights. Several cogent and impassioned objections have been voiced against prematurely renaming this board. They deserve and have been accorded serious consideration.

I would like to present the view that the fortunes of ANCR are in dynamic flux and whether the deal falls through or another suitor emerges, this board should reflect those changing dynamics.

To this end I propose that the header lists the history of the thread. As the history of our investment evolves, this history can be updated.

The subject title can change as often as events dictate, but the thread, and hopefully, its substance, may retain its continuity in perpetuity.

Long live ANCR.

Here is the content of our request:

---------------------------------------------------
Hi there,

As a result of the announced merger of QLGC and ANCR, the members of the SI ANCR board request that the Subject title of the board be changed to:

ANCR - QLGC

and that the header text now read:
____________
Thread History

4/12/1996 - ANCR thread founded
5/08/2000 - QLGC announces ANCR acquisition
8k URL - sec.gov
____________

We are routing this request through your engineering staff as the owner of the thread is no longer available to effect any changes.

This request was consensually arrived at via an online poll, the result can be viewed at -

Message 13714520

Your expeditious execution of this request will be appreciated.

The ANCR thread:
Subject 3278

-----------------------------

In case there are any suggestions for changes to the header text, I will hold off sending this request until 11:30 pm Eastern. I have no idea when it would go into effect. A prior request to display both symbols' quotes and charts is pending.

I hope no one feels ill-served by this change or its process, and that we can continue to work together to serve our common interests in the face of constant change.

Sincerely,

Douglas Nordgren
