Some of you may not know that Bryan got some of the go2net longs a while back really good. All in good fun. The go2net longs have been looking for an opportunity for payback (all in good fun) and Roger and I saw this as the perfect opportunity.....He as I recall made us suffer quite some time so it pains me to devulge this so soon...none the less it gives me some pleasure that we are getting somewhat even....Bryan should know we longs will be there lurking in the shadows looking for more opportunities like this. Bryan should also know the go2net longs think he is a great guy and wish him the best in his new job.

Bryan, from what Roger says you may not be coherent enough to understand this but if so I noticed this "announcement" link off the virtual ave home page is just a touch dated.....perhaps it should be updated...you think?

Bryan, I apologize for not corresponding with you on this thread, but by way of explanation, I must add that I was not aware of its existence until my very decent friend Roger brought this information gap to my attention on the GNET thread today. I truly am sorry to hear of your detention in a mental/psycho ward. Nothing you have done deserves this reward. On the other hand, there is something you have not attended to that may be the root cause of your problem. I call your attention to recent posts of mine on the GNET thread which were designed to capture your interest, concern and prompt action. Not having heard from you about this matter, I, of course, viewed this as a convenient escape from feasance on your part. Please alter my impression of your character by advising of your assent to perform the responsibilities you assumed in your new position. To assist you in this task when you fully recover, I am appending the messages hereinabove (an excellent legal term camouflaging an inability to communicate with precision, don't you agree?)mentioned.

Carolyn, enough with the ROFL. In an interesting message on the HSAC thread Puna came up with the best post merger change of name I have seen, should there be an option. He suggests Go2Space.

Now about this "ladder" gender thing...what about your experience in Berlin? We await your response with bated breath.

Carolyn, your lurid response for which we waited with eager expectancy evokes a single thought of a word that well could be the symbol for Go2Space...GASP. What will Beautiful Rudi think of your Berlin escapade?

Sarkie, Roger, where is that craven coward, Brian B? Why hasn't he responded to the challenge to support Puna's brilliant choice of Go2Space as the new name of the combined entity. Perhaps it will be necessary for of us to convince him that he cannot remain in hiding forever. Can we all agree to devise means of public humiliation until he submits? All we ask is that he join us in the Society For The Preservation Of Some Of Our Name. We GASP at his reluctance to come forward. levy, if Q and G enlist in our noble cause will you grant them amnesty? All aboard!

Roger, I'm aghast that you claim credit for developing that (until now) secret strategy. I am much your senior and invented and patented this method for safe, sound and secure investing decades before. Indeed, I'm contemplating an infringement action against the developer of that site. Speaking of patent infringement, have you heard from Bryan B? Has that craven coward (you remember..just like the man who shot Mr. Howard) accepted the challenge to sponsor Puna's innovation? It seems such a simple undertaking to convince Jain to change the name of the merged entity to Go2Space? As for loading by the ton, I buy strictly retail, by the pound.

Bryan, my best wishes for a speedy recovery,

Your devoted admirer,

Sy
