I am so proud! Although the offer of the iMac G3 is nice, it is unnecessary, and I hereby donate it to such charity as The Internet sees fit, probably to a Nigerian who has fallen on hard times (but is tragically soft in other places). As my handle indicates, I am in it for the fame and adulation.
Damn! 4th again!
The longstanding rivalry finally ends with Bill Frist (6th) beating his posting nemesis Alan Greenspan (20th). Threads where they both posted usually end with Greenspan yelling "TROLL" and raising interest rates a quarter point.
