Check Out Our New Companion Blog: www.CrisisPost.com

Today I am pleased that we are soft launching the Crisis Post at www.crisispost.com. Why a new blog? Many of you know me from here at the RM blog, or from my contributions on entrepreneurship to Slate.com’s small business site at bizbox.slate.com. Some of you have read my book, Reverse Mergers: Taking a Company Public Without an IPO (Bloomberg Press), or maybe you are a friend, business contact, fellow Wharton School graduate or law client!
Late last year we started including commentary on the economy, Wall Street, Bernie Madoff and other scammers, the legal industry and the President and his policies on this humble blog. Many of the thousands who visit here each month gave wonderful compliments about the information that went broader than the reverse merger and IPO alternative industry, which is a big part of my day to day law practice. Therefore, with a goal of responding to those who may not be as interested in the discrete world of reverse mergers, or who remain interested both in the RM world and the broader one, the Crisis Post seeks to covers all these other topics (and maybe a little on reverse mergers as well). The fancy graphics are also a little nicer. We will also include prominent outside contributors including Doug Roberts of Channel Capital Research (www.channelcapitalresearch.com), who is on CNBC, Fox Business and other cable news shows on a regular basis.
This Reverse Merger & SPAC Blog will continue as always, and I hope you will all continue to visit both sites. The content here will remain focused on PIPEs, reverse mergers, self-filings, SPACs and other alternatives to traditional IPOs. This is a critical time in our industry as we hope for some regulatory relief in certain areas while also waiting for the deal world to wake up again (yes there are signs of life in that regard).
I do believe the Crisis Post will be unique. I have not found another site that covers all the topics we do. Don’t plan on getting your news there. But plan on getting our views on the news, then feel free to add comments to our thoughts! Then, maybe, at some point, we will rename it when there’s no more crisis! I’ve enjoyed blogging these past three years because I can do so in my spare time and still give my clients 100% on their matters.. Happy reading and I hope to keep both the new and old blogs interesting…Thanks to all my loyal blogees here, I hope you will enjoy both the efforts!

Dear Sir,
It gives me great pleasure to extend to you my best wishes and on-going gratitude, given your substantial investment of professional time and your resulting on-line initiatives. Your considerable scope of expertise on given matters, together w a clear and purposeful writing style, provides readers of various backgrounds information that is practical and poignant to the topic at hand. As we have come to know all to well, whether an investor, corporate interest or practitioner, certain public company matters have in recent years increasingly lent themselves to interpretation, the results of which being of critical importance. It is disappointing to see avoidable mistakes repeatedly made; especially those resulting in the manipulation of the naive and innocent private co “mom and pop” RM&A victim. Your efforts have compelled me to participate in kind, as and where possible. Thank you.
Northern - thanks so much! That’s the kind of comment that keeps me going with the online initiatives that I have really enjoyed. Hope you stay tuned and visit the new blog!
David
