Love that tagline! Took a minute to figure out “CINOs”, but you just gave me a new tagline!

Reportedly, Campbell managed to convince the FBI that would draw more attention to the US atomic bomb program than just ignoring it. And that’s what they did.

What a rare case of bureaucratic common sense. Possibly rarer than accurate prophecies.

and this woman was definitely a fraud

You again! You are apparently always "certain" about things of which you have no direct evidence. After your pathetic performance on the Shroud of Turin thread, one would think that you'd be ashamed to poke your head up on another such thread.

But, nooooooooo - here you are!

OK, I'm just going to say it. You can't prove she was a fraud . Ever. No way, no how.

It's just your opinion that she was a fraud.

O-P-I-N-I-O-N

And on the Internet, opinions are like that certain orifice - pretty much everyone's got one.

Once money changes hands, a seance goes from being a silly little game to a fraudulent enterprise in many jurisdictions.

So what do you call it when someone steals your retirement money at gunpoint?

SSI!

(baddah-bing!)

	Gods Graves Glyphs	Thanks BGHater. Helen Duncan, pictured in a portrait from 1931, was jailed for nine months in 1944 under the Witchcraft Act of 1735 Blast from the Past, specifically, March 2008. Pinging this because A) it pertains to history, B) it pertains to dead folks, and C) it's the week of Halloween, and it just seems like a cool "Oh So Mysteriouso" topic. To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. GGG managers are SunkenCiv, StayAt HomeMother, and Ernest_at_the_Beach

I think we should channel her and see what she wants...

Maybe John Edwards will oblige and use his channeling skills.

Canada still has a law about witchcraft but it is about fraud, not sorcery. The Criminal Code offence of “Pretending to exercise witchcraft” is still regularly enforced in cases involving fortune-telling scams.
