Gotta say right now, Karl Denninger, Certified Crazy Person. I don't buy this story.

But hey this is definitely Hacker News. What do you think?

I think the author has the subtlety and clarity of the Timecube guy, but I can't wait to see a Matasano writeup of NYSE protocols and security.

And you'll get it, coming to you LIVE, on SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY (plus 3 days), LIVE AT VEGAS, with a SPECIAL GUEST APPEARANCE by TRUCKASAURUS, and LIVE MUSIC by Kip Z'Nuff of Enuff Z'Nuff and WARRANT tribute band CHERRY PIE.

There's no credible basis for any of this news about Goldman. Taibbi wrote up a sensationalist piece in Rolling Stone and the other tin-foil caps followed. If this is such big news, why is not reported in the mainstream business publications?

Just as I have said on NewMogul, I am open to solid evidence that claims like this are true, but no one has been able to produce any.

I'm intrigued by this story as well, but if the Canonical Yamhead is going to jump into the pool then all credibility is lost for sure. Sigh.

Ok, where do I know you from? :)
