ticalc.org Completes IPO
Posted by Michael on 1 April 2004, 00:50 GMT
As many of you know, it costs quite a bit of money to run a website with the astounding level of traffic that we receive. In order to raise enough funds to cover next year's bandwidth expenses, we are pleased (actually, overwhelmingly excited) to announce that ticalc.org has just completed its initial public offering of stock.
We are now traded as a nonprofit corporation on the electronic communications network Archipelago. This allows for 24-hour, real time trades under the ticker symbol CALCS. Our initial public float was 1,000,000 shares at a par value of $0.25 each.
Because of unexpected demand, as of the time of this writing, we expect Isaac to place first in the list of the world's wealthiest people, with a net worth of $76 billion. Magnus is second with a current worth of $43 billion. We have created a stock ticker (quotes delayed 15 minutes) with the current ticalc.org price:
CALCS: $
We thank all of you for investing in us, and hope to continue to serve the community for many more years now!

All right.... I'm gonna start working on an 83+ SE program that will calculate the stock for ticalc.org... We won't even need a computer anymore!!
And then for the 89, of course... Who's in?

As I said in the poll, this would be an egregious violation of almost every tax code if it was true.
