So. How long do you imagine it will be before we start getting claims that the prize was discontinued because "I passed his test"?

After copying the thread title to google, and opening some of the search results, it seems that this poster is just a little troll that has been spamming a lot of forums with his stuff. Whatever that is. I didnīt find anything about how the challenge was "stopped", but it has to do with Nostradamus. Or something.
Thanks for looking again anyway. |

Yeah, I think he'd bascially just linked to another forum where he'd made some claims and been told he was an idiot. Now I think about it, he wasn't actually claiming that the challenge had stopped because he'd passed, but because they knew he was going to pass. Does that still count?

If you could write them all out- it could be like that joke about all the comedians who new all the jokes, and only shared the numbers then laughed-
Someone could deny a claim, we'd all go '17' and giggle to ourselves.. |

My favorite canard is on the SAAB Viggen jet. As to MDC applicants "The protocol is fraudulent." DR |

Darth rotor's link does not work (bug in software) the correct link is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canard_(aeronautics)
Is this evidence I am the only one interested in what he has to say? |

"I already won the challenge. I bumped into a friend of a friend of Randi's and he was slightly impressed by my psychic reading of his second dog. Randi refuses to admit this success and won't give me the million."
Yes, someone did try something similar to this. |
