Given that I am now the AR-F,  I approve Else...if's idea of setting the D
and N values to 0.5.

Actually, I seem to have to 'publically specify them' not agree with
else...if, therefore, I also specify that the D value and the N value both
be changed to 0.5

I've got a feeling that everyone should sell their stocks and invest
in rubles instead...

I suspect this auction is long since over, but it's got to be worth a shot...

I bid A$100 for the whamiol

The auction was due to end at 19:26 GMT today so you aren't too late. It is
of course now due to end three hours after your message.

Actually, as far as I can tell (from the P/E page) noone has any stocks,
currently [except for Guy Fawkes who has 95 shares].  Hopefully, raising
these numbers will cause the stock price to tumble and then stabalize
(after the next changes) to a lower value so that normal folk without a
huge amount of cash can once again purchase stock.  I don't know if that
was else...if's intent in setting the numbers, but that's my intent in
approving those settings.
