Nope. I have plenty of success getting friends, family, and coworkers, who haven't been tarnished by bad/over investments, to understand what Bitcoin is and how it works.

I think most people can understand that when a brick and mortar merchant register gets robbed, it's ok to still use cash.


Market looks pretty stable now. How about refreshing your bag of arguments?



Hmmm. Cash has the same problem. Better stop using it too.

Mmmm no, Bitcoin is a success with almost every transaction made with it. I have no idea how many transactions there have been, but if we count in blocks, that's currently about 178915 successes.

Does the list reset at payouts? I saw BitcoinWeekly.info in the list earlier, but it's not there now.

+1 TY... much easier to read!

Question though... some of my domains where I display ads are not showing up on the list... I am sharing a single iframe across several domains. Does that make a difference?

Congrats! I really like what you've done with this so far!!

That's the whole point. You want the government to have this burden so it takes millennia for it to corrupt itself - it would be possible at all with this. The Framers knew very well of the problem associated with government power and trying to limiting it. But I think they underestimated it still. X year sun-setting for all levels of government is the ultimate hog tie.

Edit: And it would be that much more costly for corporations to influence the legislature too because they'd have to keep "funding" the shit heads at every cycle to keep something going.

I don't think we missed it at all.

I think there needs to be "reasonableness" factor to the way the constitution is interpreted, but I also believe that the constitution needs to be amended so that every law the government makes, at any level, must sunset after 10 years.

If a law proves to be truly needed, then they can spend their terms renewing the good ones and let the useless or bad ones fall out of the system. This prevents tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of laws to accumulate over centuries that literally obliterates the possibility of a "law abiding citizen".

haha I went back but the stream only lasted a few minutes and died on me.

You just missed me! haha

AFIAK, Regulation is allowed because the supreme court has ruled that a right must have some level of reasonableness applied to it. Example, you have freedom of speech, but you can't yell "fire" in a crowded building. THEY (not me) have decided that nukes, cannons, full autos, etc are reasonable exceptions.

I believe the technical term is sodium chloride delivery system.

Wow... Indeed. haha Apparently, I'm easily distracted by shiny Bitcoins and completely missed that!

OMG I want this so bad.

Important question...

Are you paying Patrick in Bitcoin?

There's so many things that can be done with this...

If we can get screen casting and/or sharing implemented with this, imaging the tutoring and tech support services that could flourish.

I was waiting for some wallets to confirm and experimenting with the easywallet email feature when a server blew up at work so I didn't actually get a chance to send the email yet. I'll send it tonight but I dont expect to hear anything about it until next week during the event.

Thank you, Good Sir!
