Dear Mr. Kimball: I don’t understand one point. Assume all 11 POST whorings got their full price. Total: $550,000. That would be a lot of dough for me, likely for you too. But for the POST? The company has about 9.5 million shares outstanding, so this gig would increase their gross earnings by about six-tenths of a cent per share. What’s next? Sending Dan Balz and Tom Shales out on the DC streets at 3 AM with a hacksaw so they can saw off the tops of parking meters and get a payday? Or take up bank robbery as a career, starting with Lehman Brothers? What possessed these fools to sell themselves for so little? Or is 550K only the surface of the graft they hoped to get?

Sincerely yours,
Gregory Koster
