well, if we're changing one vowel, then why not change 2 so you could have u-buy, thus bringing it full circle. Actually they probably were going to name it ubuy and then thought "No, that's just too generic... let's change out those u's for other letters..." So they got out the alphabet die from the scatergories game and now we have ebay.
I am a 36 year old geologist. Well, kinda geologist. I used to spend my day putting dirt in little baggies and tube for study. Now I'm unemployed and looking for love. In High School I ran for class office and lost.
