I set up a play money prediction market on Inkling (the first of two) asking whether Java would be open sourced by the end of this year.

I would create a real-money prediction market at InTrade, not at Inkling. What do you suggest? How would frame it? Which way would you speculate? Soon, Mike,

Selection, high tuitions, education quality, etc. Alex Tabarrok’s post, which you link to, is correct 100%.
