Humbly report, Roger, only one humble comment and humbler suggestion: Don't sue harmless April Fool's jokers. Cheers, Svejk proofsheet.com

Announce it on PR Newswire or Hire magneticdiary.com to do your website Check out this stunning bit of work webnode.com Maybe Janice Shell could be enticed into giving a few remarks in an off the cuff manner, with enough "lire"(?) perhaps she would say things in Italian for you. Hire Mr. Mitchell as your CEO and pay him a tremendous amount of money, do this first. Hire several writers. Pay them well also.

I'm in for that. It is my firm belief that raising the seed money, putting the programmers and the web design crew together, and finding an underwriter can be done in less than 30 days. Truthfully, I doubt if you would need an underwriter, I think the deal could easily be funded privately. I know some people that might be very interested. I'm serious as a speeding ticket, dude, bring it on!

I am considering startup and incubation of an Internet wire service. Anyone have comments or suggestions? Yes. Don't call it "Bidness Wire".
