Can somebody explain why I keep seeing really high trades at bitcoinwatch.com for localbtcUSD?  I saw a high today of $13,333.33.  Surely nobody is paying that much.   

So what do you all think of this little tidbit?

"The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) must disclose its plans for a so-called Internet 'kill switch,' a federal court ruled on Tuesday. The United States District Court for the District of Columbia rejected the agency's arguments that its protocols surrounding an Internet kill switch were exempt from public disclosure and ordered the agency to release the records in 30 days. However, the court left the door open for the agency to appeal the ruling."

And now for something completely different:

The last person to post to this topic (other than the correct solver) has to send .5 bitcoin to the first person to correctly solve this "World's First Bitcoin" Sudoku below. 

If somebody complains that there is no way to know who the last poster is then that person must pay the first correct solver 1 bitcoin instead.

This quote is so relevant when deciding to accept or reject Bitcoin!

"... and there were no chains to hold you except the chains you were willing to wear ... remember that you have seen another kind of world.  Remember that you can reach it whenever you choose to see.  Remember that it will be waiting and it's real, it's possible - it's yours."
