Re: [spoon-discuss] Re: [Spoon-business] NWEEK 22 VOTING RESULTS

["Jeremy \"Athena\" Cook" <mcfoufou@xxxxxxxxx>]

The other option would be all of us going public, buying each other's
shares until we together can outvote Wonko, and passing a "Nuke Wonko"
proposal.

If the Baron buys just 1 share of my stock, for instance, and I buy 50, we
can outvote Wonko 51-50 for my vote.
