Mu Beta Started conversation Feb 6, 2004
OK, I'm currently subbing A1161262 (please do not post grammar/spelling/formatting errors, I haven't finished it yet! 
), and the author and I want to change the title. Unfortunately we can't think of anything to change it to. Suggestions?

"What to do when you've lost all drive?"
"When players become bosses"
"French Fantasy F1"

All good.
Certainly all better than anything we'd come up with, leastways.

How about a literary one
"Alain Prost as a manager - trying to find lost time"
*It's a Proust reference for the majority of people not sad enough to know*

Marcel Proust - French novelist - wrote a moderately famous book called "In search of lost time". Alain Prost spent his time as a manager trying both to find that extra second, and arguably trying to recapture lost glories...
It's clearly not a good idea

I think our target audience might be tending towards zero.

The F1nishing Prost
(I'll get me coat 
)
Seriously though, might want a comparison with Jackie Stewart who did manage to get a moderately successful team with his name, albeit through a different approach?
Just a thought
