trademarked? politicize my plight is trademarked. (From your original post).

I have to investigate that.

[halieus]

THE SYMPTOMS HE PRESENTED WERE CONSISTENT WITH CANCER OF THE PANCREAS. BEFORE HE FOUND OUT HE WAS GOING TO BE TREATED AT JOHNS HOPKINS, HIS DOCTOR IN SEATTLE WANTED TO BEGIN CHEMOTHERAPY.

This is a new one. They've added the chemo line because we've all said how Andy would have immediately begun chemo or had surgery.

But he didn't.

Because he doesn't have cancer.

Re the popup problem it's not really motzman's fault. I've found it's easy to prevent popups (and lots of other crap) when using IE, just disable java, active scripting, paste via script, and scripting of java applets.

In IE 5.5 you can do this in tools/inernet options/security/custom level/

You don't need a separate pop up blocker.

This is the way I run IE for everything except extremely trusted sites and I have no popups trogans, etc. at all. If I have to do online banking, PayPal, eBay eTrade, etc I turn java and scripting back on.

I also like to leave only "per session" cookies turned on, and leave stored cookies turned off. However stored cookies have to be turned on for many secure sites and of course for FR.

You can set these options in newer versions of IE but they are labled differently. You really can't mess anything up by playing with these settings - you can always go back to a default security level.

LOL! Take a look at this NOTICE on the Err America website. FUnniest of all is who they use as a reference for Andy's pancreatic cancer problem:

The whole country owes electronic voting activists a huge debt of gratitude for the consciousness-raising and rabblerousing they've done on the issue of our private, for-profit, unregulated voting system. Andy Stephenson, electronic voting activist par excellence, is seriously ill with pancreatic cancer. He's facing hugely expensive treatment, with no health insurance. Thanks to William Rivers Pitt (scroll down), fellow Air American Mike Malloy, Thom Hartmann and others for bringing attention to Andy's crisis. You can donate by Paypal to Andy_Stephenson@comcast.net or at Amazon here -- even a couple of bucks would help. Solidarity, hey? And while we're at it, how about a damn plan to cover the uninsured in this country? Rachel

[halieus]

I think Andy is still gallivanting around Hoboken or Hohokus or Baltimore or wherever he is, a little bit concerned about the "firestorm" in DUmmieland, but essentially giving no thought at all to the notion that he might be in some sort of trouble. Good criminals think that way.

Sociopaths think that way, too.

80. You didn't cause this



bettyellen didn't cause this. I caused it. I am still working on finding out everything I need to know and will make sure to share it tomorrow when I am done. There will be an apology in there, but there will also be several good reasons for why I said what I said and asked what I asked.

But you taking any blame for this is wacky.

[commonguymd]

you are probably right. no way Andy doesn't think he can't schmooze his way out of this.

[The Right Stuff]

Krodg;

Wasn't it you that also called the bank about the checks veracity? What did you find out? I must have missed it.

[Barset]

They are dastardly. They are still lying to those poor dupes.
Special circle in hell opening up. Thanks for posting this to me. Will print it off.

[steve-b]

I wonder if the IRS is looking for him?

I'm sure that when his tax returns are due next year, Andy will gladly pay his fair share.... [ STRAIGHT FACE CRACKS ] BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!

[commonguymd]

Back in the last thread I wrote on 185 that the reports I have seen are consistent with pancreatic cancer - seems they are stealing my material.

It is consistent - it doesn't say otherwise - what is factual was that the report indicated a tumor of some type - whether it was benign or malignant cannot be ascertained from the report he provided. not a professional opinion - so don't ask.

But that is interesting that the doctors wanted him to begin chemotherapy if true and he abstained.

[Charles Henrickson]

In the pic of Andy smoking, the two women and the bearded guy. Is the bearded guy Pitt?

Yes.

[BJClinton]

If "NFL" meand "National Football League" then add me to your ping list!

[commonguymd]

He has had some major free advertising to line his pockets - everywhere.

[Laurita]

He'll be writing a book soon.

[Charles Henrickson]

if you expect all the answers before the knife goes in, you're damned ignorant. because that ain't how things happen.

Sorry, "bettyellen," that ain't gonna cut it. Andy said his biopsy was done way back in February or March. Andy LIHOP/MIHOP that the word went out, "Andy needs life-saving pancreatic cancer surgery"--including that very claim from his own fundraising manager, Beth Ferrari ("sfexpat2000"), as her "911" e-mail proves--and he never corrected that claim, even though he had many opportunities to do so.

[Barset]

Thanks for IDing Pitt.

I disagree with your assumption that Andy is still bouncing around Baltimore.

He was never in Baltimore. He never showed up at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

See my post #683 on this thread.

[commonguymd]

someone here should write a book.

[franksolich]

Well, it seems to me, the problem is, when we speculate about Andy, we speculate he is going to conduct himself in the ways we ourselves would conduct ourselves, if in the same situation.

I'm sure most of us, yeah, would be getting an attorney.

But that's what WE would do.

In the mind of Andy, what he WANTS is the right and moral and commonsensical thing, and if he is aware of some sort of, uh, disturbance caused by his "wants," he is genuinely and sincerely confused--why all this ruckus?

[Charles Henrickson]

That's what biopsies are for. Which Andy did not have.

But that's the thing. Andy did claim that a biopsy was done--way back in February or March (don't have the exact date in front of me). And he still LIHOP/MIHOP.
