Additional Div - Super Bowl

A small additional dividend of 0.0015 $L per share was paid today. It’s cosmetics you might say. It surely is but I think it is to honor the fact that the Steelers won the super-bowl..call me sentimental if you like. I give you four reasons why:

Because of William Pitt the name giver of Pittsburgh. He made the British Empire famous and cracked the French but couldn’t stop the independence of USA which strongly influenced the French revolution which finally remodeled the whole political landscape of Europe. This almost sounds like the way we find our ways through SL - from one new rule from LL to another regulation and another policy - with the exception that we haven’t identified a Pitt yet…It cannot be one of the Lindens as Pitt was known to give clear instructions and was a splendid and talented communicator…lol

Or the fact that steel production went up and down in Pittsburgh and transformed into somehting new and more sustainable. A bubble which went off but found a strong base again…sounds like we have to see our ponzi schemes here in SL or understand the financial systems in RL

Or because of the ancestors of Ben Röthlisberger which are coming from the same local spot as me where the Swiss Emmentaler cheese is coming from…for the insider it is the one with the big holes..

Or just because I like it

Up to you to decide.
