            in the spirit of collective nouns such as a murder of crows, an unkindness of ravens, and an eloquence of lawyers, i think perhaps a misgiving of bankrupts..or a destitution of bankrupts..0

            I do wish there were a nicer term for the end of bankruptcy than discharge. I mean, eeeuw....

            I have the very word:
 "A Court of Bankrupts":D 
 We could actually vote for who held the key posts and the rest of us would be "Courtiers of Bankruptcy".
 So, I'd want to be King Richard, because I'm above the law; only joking.:rolleyes: :rolleyes: . There could be Queen Dalip, because she's a regal sort of person, and she get to sleep with the King.:o .

 Fermi could be the Wizard because he can always pull something out of the hat, and Phil and Bat would be Court Jesters because they've always got a little trick up their sleeve to make people laugh.
 Maybe Toon_Dave and Red could be the courting prince and princess; oh the options are endless.:rotfl::rotfl:0

            Hi Rich,
 Just to lower the tone a little what about a 'SCROTUM' of bancrupts.Cos the whole process of going BR is a bag of balls.
 However for the purpose of the a 'LIBRARY' of Bancrupts would be appropriate                        The triumph of hope over experience a 'LIBRARY' of Bancrupts would be appropriate                        The triumph of hope over experience

            Rich, can i apply for the post of 'wench' who gets chased around by all the men?:D
 From what i've seen a 'depression of Bankrupts' would be appropriate:rolleyes:
 or a 'bedlam of bRs' or a 'Bank' of Bankrupts.
 I like richards a 'Discharge of Brs' best though:TThe first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter 0 0
