I've been watching EOM since the beginning of his current posting cycle and the longer it goes on the more it seems like complete BS. If this were "credible" why would the site not be shut down anyway? I have always wondered that.
If EOM is a 'chain-jerker,' can he/she/they be prosecuted for posting terroristic threats on the Internet? That'd be nice.

Excellent question, which, if the answer is yes, begs another question.
Is action being taken and if so, by whom?

Certainly, what EOM is doing should be assumed as a threat and would likely be rewarded with arrest/jail time. It's no different than someone passing a note to a flight attendant saying they have a bomb, even if they do not. Furthermor, if EOM is a fake, he is perpetuating a threat for a long period of time... this tends to take out the "insanity" theory. I'm not sure, but I would guess the Patriot Act could come into play in the case of a fake as well.
