Re: the stars. If I remember correctly, the new requirement is that you have to have 50 followers. Or something high. I know this because I got my star a few days before the switch. Now it is gone.

On another note, you have any idea if there is any connection between Cerberus and Deutsche Bank? Heard an interesting theory about GM's financial problems today (from a reasonably high-ranking employee).

I think it is the "beginning of the end" of a lot of things around Jalopnik way.
