lol, absolutely not. Our Merry Prankster (it's not me) got an stiff email from an SEC enforcement guy asking him to call immediately. Prankster found himself in a conference call with the SEC agent and his staff. First thing they did was read him his rights.

He pointed out that it was an April Fool's joke. They grudgingly accepted that, but weren't happy, though eventually they let him off the hook when he assured them he had no intention of taking money from anyone.

And then on Friday they called back, pretty much begging him to take the site down because they were getting so many irate calls from people who didn't Get It.

Some never will. I'm sure this will keep recycling periodically, like the Confessions of a Basher.
