My lack of financial awareness is about to really show. I had no idea that that New York Stock Exchange was something that could be sold or acquired.

Yet it's not April 1st. The breaking news headline on CNN International reads:

"New York Stock Exchange to be bought by IntercontinentalExchange for $8.2 billion."

Toddling off to get more educated....

Except when we set up the local marketplace in the commons. Oh. Wait. They own that now too, don't They? What a tragedy.
