  Re: You downgrade fraud to "ridiculous" at the end.

  You claim he doesn't support any action at all. Can you show how you came to this conclusion when he only states he doesn't support RICO claims? Or are we back to jumping to conclusions that don't exist?

  Bonfire?

  Keep the info on paper tape and punch cards, and refuse to offer assistance sifting through the data when the government comes calling. Then, every three months or so after expiry has been reached, have a big ol' bonfire for the community. Hot dogs, hamburgers, balloons for the kids, maybe an origami contest...

  Considering it's an open gathering of people of like religious beliefs, not necessarily people that we have met in person yet... Yeah, I think it would. That's okay, though. We stream our Netflix at the same gatherings.

  Re: Re: Boiled down: a "public performance" is any on a PUBLIC DVD player.

The movies show on any tv in any room on that floor set to one of those two channels. Oops.

  Re: Re: Re:

  You really shouldn't be surprised if you get a cold reception for your posts. You still fail to provide anything other than your opinion, which you are quite welcome to, but if you fail to provide citations to support it, it is only an opinion.
  
  Are you one of those that decry people going to sites that support your opinion and stating our own? I know there are many that come here and do just that.
