As my request for a name change for this thread seems to have been more or less ignored, I would like to put this proposal in front of this thread for a vote:
The name of this thread be changed from its current title to simply "Ligand Pharmaceuticals - (LGND)" for the following reasons:

A) The current thread title (with "Breakout!" at the conclusion) IMHO lends an air of hype and promotion which is unnecessary and undesirable. IMHO it does not encourage serious discussion (either pro or con) of LGND's investment prospects.
B) The thread title is almost two years old, and has little relevance given the stock's current state.
C) I've disliked the title and its implications long before I was an investor in the stock.

Those desiring to vote can reply to me, and I will keep a tally, which I will then present to the thread originator. I thought about private votes to keep the thread from being more cluttered, but I thought it would be best if votes were shown publicly. Voting will end at the close of trading (4 pm EDT) this Friday. I will repost this a few times throughout the week.
Those for this proposal please reply to me with "FOR"
Those against the proposal please reply to me with "AGAINST"
Thanks everyone, it may seem trivial, but I just feel the current title sends the wrong message. Wallace
