Of course, who wouldn't. Now let me see you get them to accept Bitcoin.

So what does the formula mean Huh

It's a meaningless thing above your avatar. New people that come here won't understand it so they will look at your post count instead completely ignoring activity and so should you.

Reading the letter, it seems they are in direct violation of CA Code 2030. Could you shed some light on this?

Very good question. Especially in relation to the word "advertise".

My thinking exactly. California is a bureaucratic nightmare but they usually have something they can sink their teeth into before they start sending action letters. I ran a business in California for 20 years. I've received my share of letters from the state and none of them were completely baseless accusations. They do their research first. Funny that he chose not to answer that question. A little close to home maybe?

Thank you guys these have all been great and accurate answers. How many bitcoiners are out there in general?

That's a completely different question. I would imagine that there are many more than post here. I started a friend using Bitcoin and asked him to make an account here. He visited the forum but said he never made an account because he really didn't have anything to say. He still uses Bitcoin and is addicted to the cupcakes you can buy with btc in San Francisco. Oh, and he's addicted to Seals with Clubs too. lol

You honor us with your presence. Ladies and gentlemen say hello to one of the first members of the forum.

I'm of no importance at all really. Some of us just had to be here first, that's all.

I probably indirectly helped some here get very rich indeed though, myself not included.

How to start a movement: http://www.ted.com/talks/derek_sivers_how_to_start_a_movement.html

I guess I can say that I had the honor of communicating with Satoshi though.  Cool

Anyway, lets not send this topic way of base now.

Well, I know a lot of people that would love to have talked to Satoshi directly. Don't want to off topic anymore so I'll leave you with a simple - Welcome Back!

the feds can crack your encrypted wallets very easily. all you have to do is dump the private keys with pywallet, and save them in atext file. then you delete the wallet.dat file. rename the app data folder for bitcoin, then reinstall bitcoin. prior to launch bitcoin, move the blockchain from the old bitcoin to the new app data bitcoin folder. now start bitcoin and import the private keys. you now have an unencrypted bitcoin wallet with all the funds of the old encrypted one. 

Can someone confirm this? It seems like a big security hole.

No, it won't work. Total bullshit.

With jackjack's pywallet you have to use ./pywallet.py --dumpwallet --datadir=DATADIR --wallet=WALLETFILE --passphrase=PASSPHRASE to dump the wallet.

Dead Drops ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwohadcUv4A

"Un-cloud your files in cement! 'Dead Drops’ is an anonymous, offline, peer to peer file-sharing network in public space."

Dead Drops - http://deaddrops.com/  Grin  Cool

Wow, that's something new. Greaat idea, not without it's problems, but still!

It's not really new though - three letter agencies have been doing this kind of stuff for years: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_drop

Combined with Geocaching it might be fun though!

See: http://www.geocaching.com/ and http://www.opencaching.com/

Ok, that's scary.

Honestly, that documentary only shows the TINIEST amount of this, this is much much bigger than what you think from watching the documentary.

You can stop talking now.  Cheesy

that would be AMAZING if it were true. can you source any of it?

Sure, here is a documentary about it:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0c4f4NJSB_4

There was a more credible journalist who bought one and had it tested and verified by experts, I'll post the link here when I find it again, if you've got access to nuclear waste (power plant) its extremely easy to build a nuke, you could do it in your kitchen.

Ok, that's scary.
