One of the outsiders won.  I guess we'll have to go back in the comments and see if they're in or not.

Since I am such a "newbie", could someone do me a solid and explain to me why I can start new threads in certain forums but not others?

I have something totally wise and profound to post, so hurry and help me or you'll miss out.

Members with less than 100 posts can't start a topic in the tech section.  Can you guess why???

I don't see where I can change that setting for you.  TheJudge or Chris has to.  You can always start a thread and postwhore away till you get to 100 if you don't want to wait for one of them.

This would never happen if Ron Paul ran this board.

Well... I think he would try to put The Fed back on the gold standard... so most likely all change would be melted down and sold as bullion.

I am posting here on behalf of my late brother-in-law widow. I wish to approach you with a request that would be of immense benefit to both of us. The issue that I am presenting to you is a case of my client that willed a fortune in gold bullions to his only daughter. It is unfortunate that he and his daughter died recently. The wife died of heart attack on receiving the sad news a week after. As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone will die someday.

But getting to the business in hand, my late brother-in-law had access to this forum (among many others), and he bequested that access to me. So if you can only send me a few gold bullions, along with your bank account information, i believe that i can help you get over your post count requirements and have a very good business relationship afterwards.

Can you be my partner on this?  Finally i want you to understand that the request for a foreigner as the next of kin is occassioned by the fact that my brother was a foreigner and for that reason alone a local cannot represent as next of kin.

Trusting to hear from you,
I remain Respectfully yours,
Mr Moses Odiaka.

This is obviously a fake. The real thing would have random words in all caps.

So what about the just-made-public old newsletters ostensibly penned by Mr. Paul?

Looks to me like he's a gonner.

Yup. 
Very sad if true.
