You can use cygwin in many death related contests, LOL.
Should I take this to the X-list?

It may be worth noting that this idea has been around for at least a few months.  
I was making some rambling conjectures about this topic a few days prior 
to the move. In some part, my conjecture 
was based on comments I heard or read about rumours having to do with the Fed 
buying longer maturity issues and some simple plots I did with xgraph on cygwin and 
some text/csv data files I downloaded from the Fed. I couldn't actually site credible sources now, 
again IIRC CNBC and maybe Yahoo or possibly Bloomberg, but 
based on this information I probably would have bet the other way by concluding that things are getting 
pretty bad.

things you can do with cygwin, LEH death contest,

I don't know if anyone here follows this but the problem with LEH have
been all over the news lately, cygwin mentioned in this not-so-prestiguous
forum, funny but still a real use that may go unappreciated,
