Open Source Money Transfer Techniques? |
I tried posting the following comments at MOA, but there is probably a filter there that excludes posts using certain spam-like strings, so my attempts never met with success. As any reader will note, the exclusion was certainly no great loss to MOA

I have been following the Libya threads at MOA, but have not contributed since I have neither special information nor deep convictions about the true state of affairs there, either at present or in recent decades.
It does seem, however, that there is considerable heat being thrown out to produce relatively little new light, or, to put it in other terms, the MOA's usual high signal/noise ratio seems to be degrading.

It's probably too late to start a December open thread, and with all the activity over at MoA, it's most likely rather pointless...
But I thought it would be nice to have a spot to hang-out and share whatever little off-the-wall weirdness we came across while floating down life's river. I'm thinkin' poems, stories, odd net posting and other randomness might fit well here.
