Reserve News: Today was a busy day for the Reserve, as the AR-P took office under the new stock market rules. Idiot Boy, the first AR-P, supported else's reform measures by agreeing to change the P-setting to 0.05 and the N-setting to 0.2. if has criticizes the changes be describing them as insufficient, and charging that "they market could continueue to go up; insufficient action has been taken to ensure a decrease." else denies the charges, arguing that the market should "still be left up to fate, but be encouraged to decrease." In other news, the Reserve resurrected its web page, citing "the recovery of a long-damaged hard drive." The page has been redesigned to support the many changes made since its last update on March 8th. The Reserve hastens to add that the page is preliminary, and that a number of changes are expected before a final design is selected. - -- The Ackan Reserve Financial Report Published by the board of the Ackan Reserve Coming daily since 1998 else...if ELSE...IF Chair, Ackan Reserve ------------------------------ End of acka-finance-digest V3 #87 *********************************
