I don't think the spoof looks news-y enough as it is, I'd like it to look more like a CNN short article. Preferably people who know what imaginary numbers are (although not entirely necessary). Volunteer and I shall PM you the "prototype". Any takers?

Somebody here was asking for political humor a week or so ago. Who was it?

2. Yeah, JCCyC, I'll take a look at it.

I used to love writing news parodies.
