$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('big goat', '

I agree Short. Thats plenty enough for me. Like I said before, I wasnt advocating you do so, I just thought that if you were still hot after so many months of cool down time I would point to a possible retalitory measure, feel free to ignore my suggestion.

It is coming out now that this was an elaborate hoax aimed at LATOC, and that AP probably isnt even involved or aware of any of it. Check this out:

HOW I HOAXED LATOC INTO NEAR SUICIDE: link
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')hen this strange dream had me, Pam/Bob, and a bunch of naked midgets making some prank calls. Well, sorta, in this vision I only made one call, that being to Matt. I saw myself in this dream telling him I was from the AP, in San Francisco, that it "had come to my attention" and made pointed references to imaginary doom coming from New York... but of course this is just a dream, and a bad one at that...

Oh, the power of paranoia! It looks like it came back and bit them in the ass!

They even have deleted most of the threads I linked in my first post.

[shortonsense]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Shannymara', 'I') don't know what that means.

I would think that reading this link, and then noting all the references to forest gnomes and naked migets that it is a reasonable assumption that Matt no longer wanted to display an avatar of a miget, changing his avatar to the symbol he posted above, which is now his avatar on LATOC.

I also think it reasonable to believe that the posts erased from the links posted earlier were done in sheer embarassment.

I would certainly be embarrassed if I deleted most of my forum in a hysterical fit of paranoia. To me it looks like he is just covering the tracks, pretending it didnt happen.

I think the folks over at Illuminist.org are pretty much done with him at this point, as he fell into what sure looks like their trap hook, line, and sinker, and payed a pretty steep price at that.

Perhaps we should just all go home, donate to UNICEF.

Its looking like a bad day.

Well say what you want about Savinar, he's still done a good job of getting people to reflect on the issue of epochal change of all kinds; climatic, energy, economic, etc... So--be nice.
