This might work if the gain could happen from dividends or an increase in stock price. Use the moving average of the stock price or let the stock price a year after the CEO leaves determine his gain.

Continuing from my earlier comment: Rope off a special section with the best seats for the online crowd. Open them up to everyone ten minutes before the show. Let the special seating promote the double feature. Make that section bigger than it needs to be.

Let moviegoers create their own double feature online in the weeks before the opening of a film. Let them nominate and vote for films of the same genre, actor or director to run w/ the new film. Display the current top five choices and let people change their choices any time. Send them email every week and the day before and the day of the movie or until they buy their special tickets online. Let them buy as many as they wish up until two hours before the show w/o a convenience fee. Then run the top choices either before the first showing or after the last when the theater normally wouldn't be open anyway. The morning shows could be for G and PG rated movies. It might even be possible to show the top two or three choices using Saturday or Sunday or more if there aren't too many movies opening that weekend. Those who didn't sign up online should have to pay three or four bucks more if they want to attend the double feature showing.

Cuban was also pretty smart with the yahoo stock he got for broadcast.com, doing some kind of hedge that protected him from huge decline in its value when the bubble burst. He's lucky to be smart.

The more of a process machines and robots do, the fewer humans will be required to build the same production. That's inescapable.

This idea may have some merit for moving loads around, but I also see lots of trouble travelling with this thing. And aren't the planes heavy enough already?

I can imagine such a device as being a godsend for the physically challenged though. Maybe we should restrict their use to those folks.

I'd be happy if these bags came with handles long enough for tall guys!
