BEg2 chapter 9 Nathan Detroit? / Globex

[Michael Bailey]

To play Nathan Detroit, it’s usually a senior play, Guys and Dolls, isn’t
it? - that’s a lot of lines. Maybe Ziggy is 16 or older?
Private school - maybe accelerated - senior play in March/April or has more
time passed than I thought?
I guess that’s still enough time, especially if they started in the fall?

Wikipedia sez:

The Globex Trading System was introduced in 1992, was the first
global electronic trading system designed to handle both futures
trading and options
trading. It was developed by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) along
with other technology companies and it was designed to work with the
existing open outcry system at the exchange to help improve efficiencies
and extend the hours of trading. Today, Globex, or "CME Globex", offers
trading approximately 23 hours a day, five days a week.

>From 1992 to 2001 - Horst has been laggardly in switching over to Globex.

Also - and perhaps importantly - Globex is an evil corporation in The
Simpsons.
