SI got a big push from Money Talk BB on Prodigy

Years ago me and the Dryer Brothers debated
about a dozen different stocks. They invited
me over here, and even took a few of my early
ideas that later became features here. The
model of Prodigy was that you could create your
own Subjects, under Industry Groups, and
follow the thread chronologically. They
took that model, and have brought it to
the wonderful potential we enjoy today.
SI's structure, and continued willingness
to change from the input of their users
will help keep this site strong for years
to come. I wish them every success.

I have a trivia question: What determined
if you got a complementary membership here?
Also, do they still prevent new members
from using their real names as handles?
