Misery With Plenty Of Company
As dot-com startups drop like flies, the number of horror stories from
sacked
employees and burned investors grows. One online wine vendor wants to hear
those tales of woe. Secretcellars.com is offering a $1,500 bottle of 1996
Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon to the person who's suffered the most
from a dot-com crash.

The Dot.Com Bomb contest is being flooded with submissions. "It was the
most disheartening day of my life," writes one fired worker. The entry
deadline
is Dec. 13.
