...surprised that you suggested no escape plan for the average CEBUS victim. Mine is workable, simple, and guaranteed to trim the waistline while liberating the mind from ugh-plugs. For women, the average battery of three commercials per station break allows time for any of the following: washing and rinsing about one-third of the dinner dishes, emptying trash, sorting or putting away the wash, pressing any two wash-and-wear items, filling the coffeepot for the next morning, feeding any household pet.

Specifically, the Big Board can either trim its rates on transactions of more than 400 shares or do away with minimum commissions on deals involving $50,000 or more, leaving it to brokers and high-volume customers to work out fees on their own.
