[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

“It is because he did not pay his bills.”

This is not what I’ve read. He tried to pay his bills, but the BLM would not take his payments. He then tried to get the state to take his payments and hold them for the BLM, but the state didn’t want to be involved. Only then did he stop paying. I wish I could link you to where I’d read that, but I’ve read so many articles on this story, that I don’t know where to look .

I have never, ever read that. I sincerely believe it's the stuff of legend, but I'd love to be proven wrong.
