->Suppose Brad Cox, head of and creator of Objective-C, made the company

Brad Cox is not, and never has been, the head of Stepstone.

->a public corporation with an issue of stock at very affordable cost
->(you could call these junk bonds, if you like)? 

Going public at this time would be a very difficult and expensive
operation.


->I for one would like to own several shares of stock if they sold at
->around $25.00 (U.S.) each. If for no other reason, think of how neat
->the stock would be framed and on the wall of your office!!

 
If all you want is a certificate, send us some money and we'll send
you a certificate.  Would you like to be a donor, a sponsor, or a
patron.  For a million bucks, I'll send you a certificate saying that
you are the head Poobah, or whatever.

->And as a stock holder, one could participate in the company.

->How about it, Stepstone? Objective-C is great and I have my checkbook
->ready! I'll put my money where my USENET-mouth is...

Seriously, though, thanks for your (moral) support.
