Sadly, I predict you're right again.

You're both lying.

I am going to warn you.

Neither of you will live to see 2007 because of this lie becaue there
will be angry people who will kill you, as there is so much money at
stake.

Billions will be lost.

It's not like you can reverse it now either.

You killed yourselves.

It might have seemed like a small lie to both of you, but your names
will live in infamy, while you will not live at all.


The poor guys! Now you really scared them. :-)

Is it just me, or this post will go down in history as one of the finest
that James ever wrote? Which, by the way, is the reason that makes me
quote it completely.

Smells like a forgery to me.

I had a look at two sci.math articles from the past 3 days
signed "James Harris" and with e-mail adress:
jstevh@xxxxxxx in addition to the one containing
the passage:

"It might have seemed like a small lie to both of you, but your names
will live in infamy" article.

The headers of all three match for NNTP-Posting-Host
and the posting-account values:

NNTP-Posting-Host: 24.5.79.223
(Google Groups)-posting-account=Q2zO6wwAAABSLuGzZIjG0efOtB9n8fUY

If there are generally-accepted JSH forgery/ies, it might be
fun to take a look at the headers, especially
the Google posting-account value.

When I've looked at my own articles posted through Google,
NNTP-Posting-Host = my_IP_address. The IP adress can
change over time.

I tend to believe that the real JSH has been posting through
Google frequently, so I'd also look at the posting-account
of genuine JSH articles.

This brings up a hypothetical: would some committed JSH
trickster bother to enter JSH's computer, log on to his
Google account, and make a fake post? If so, what
might be the trickster's motive?
