Don't worry.

They are so dumb that concluded we do not work for TEH BOSS.

CurtC · 24th May 2006, 06:27 AM

What was the reason that they were seeing an "in moderation queue" message (I assume these boards spell it right)? Is there just a few-hour delay while we process the requests?

Yeah, I think Upchurch manually approves each application. That gets some of the bot spammers, serial trolls and people who want usernames like Heywood Jablowmi. It shouldn't have been more than a day though. Maybe PM Upchurch?

Woo-hoo! I just did my first "Counter Loose Change with Gravy's Response"!

On the Rachel Maddow blog at airamerica, there were some comments about Loose Change. One person says she doesn't necessarily agree with them but they do raise interesting questions, especially for the Pentagon. Why are there no engines?

So I provided the link, with some comments on how it's important to verify Loose Change claims (using geggy's picture of the melted steel on the column as an example of their dishonest). She was a fence-sitter. Perhaps not any more.

And go to the comments for today (Wed, May 24)

It's not like a big debate, or anything, just a couple of random comments on her blog. However, I saw the opportunity to correct some misconception (Looser-created, of course)

How can anybody credit these guys with any sense at all. It's just completely nuts? Geeze, Louise.

Another one did the 'They mixed explosives with Concrete whent he built the WTC!" routine in the comments section of screwloosechange. Of course, this was the total whackjob who also screams holocost denial and Illuminati stuff.

Explosives...mixed...with concrete?

Mixed?

Explosives?

*Huntsman shakes it off*

You know, I can mix a couple hundred eggs with concrete, but it doesn't leave me with anything useable in an omelet.
