My Sister at NASDAQ

My sister, Kendra Foley, works in development for Cambridge University. The chairman rang the bell at Nasdaq on December 02, 2009 and she was there. Here is a picture of her from the Nasdaq.com site. She is the one in the red sweater. (She was the one who had the 800 year sign made.)

Seems like she did the NYSE bell-ringing thing once too. She keeps pretty busy. I wonder what the exchanges do when thing are bad. Do they ring a bell with a deeper, more ominous sound?
