It's always interesting to go back over old threads to see, in hindsight, how they stand up to time.

Here's one l found from two years ago regarding WMDs in Iraq.

Chemical weapons factory found. (http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/showthread.php?t=8119&page=1&pp=10)

Ah, the pure poetry of propaganda. :whistling

Gosh, that is an old thread, UK. Were you a poster in this thread?

Odd.

The last post in that thread obviously isn't mine...

Other things have cleared up quite nicely, however.

The mystery is solved. :)

As they say: no worries... ;)

you sure about that? the quotation tags are just messed up, so it's hard to immediately recognize where the quoted text ended and your response began. i think when that thread was last active, the FST forum used a mixture of standard <HTML tags> and the which most forums use nowadays. but now the HTML sections of those messages are displaying incorrectly.

also: man! people sure have spouted off without having the foggiest, haven't they? Spindulik couldn't even bother (http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/showpost.php?p=73234&postcount=18) to figure out the difference between "Iraq's website" and the Qatar-based [b]Al-Jazeera (whose website was vandalized (http://www.usdoj.gov/criminal/cybercrime/racinePlea.htm) that week): "i don't actually know what i'm talking about and stuff, but i heard something or whatever about blah blah blah and i think it serves those Iraqis right or something."

Sadly some of the best threads and debates are gone because of the big delete a few months back.

...including my favorite: "Why Bush Will Lose". I challenged this assumption, and got a merciless beat-down for it.

Positive.

I've not mis-spelled that many words in my entire life, and it certainly isn't my style, 3RA1N1AC.

They are the words of another, to be sure.

It just occurred to me (apropos of nothing at all) that I was promised a CD autographed by an extraordinary Aussie bluesman; I should have taken a note over it, as I have never heard another word on the matter.

The promisor seems to have vanished!:ohmy:
