I've built a foundation. Build on it, if you wish.

The wording needs some work ('bitcoin-backed'?) and you backed the default claim by quoting the closing announcement (different things).

Still, I like the idea.

Bitcoinica?  That's an unfortunate name...

Once these are complete, along with the 'other' news reports, they should be forwarded to the McKinney Courior-Gazzette and the Plano Star.

Is there a Facebook fan page yet ?

+1 on that. A reporter at a smallish local paper for a city of 150k might be interested in covering a story about a resident who stole $5m through the internet. It would be a good Saturday story.

Don't forget to say how Byron Micon did the blockchain analysis and figured out what was happening. He deserves all the mainstream attention he's getting.
