Dear Threaders -

I was thinking about the design of a contest called "Bustin' a Buck," wherein contestants - you - would predict the event that would propel PRLN past the $1.00 point. But that, as the saying goes, is history.

So: I hereby announce a contest: "Doin' a Deuce." The contestants - you - are to predict what event will send the stock past the $2.00 mark.

Everyone can participate in designing the contest & suggesting rules.

I propose: predictions must be quite specific, and not vague ("the announcement of good news").

The decision of the Market is final.

What, besides our admiration, can we offer to the winner?

Should the predictions have to include a date?

Here are some possible entries; the floor is open for additions to the list.
