Lasting memorial

BOULDER, Colo., Jan. 25 (UPI) -- A venture capitalist plopped $25,000 down for naming rights for a men's bathroom in the technology hub of the University of Colorado in Boulder.

Because it was an offer university officials couldn't refuse, the second-floor men's bathroom in the high-tech hub has Brad Feld's name on it and a plaque quoting the donor, "The best ideas often come at inconvenient times. Don't ever close your mind to them."

Feld told the Daily Camera in Boulder he made a similar offer to his alma mater, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, but was turned down.

MCN says: Sadly Brad was narrowly beaten at MIT by a bid from the Pisspot family.
