One said 85 and the other 95, which is about right given my family's history. Average age of death of my great-grandparents and their siblings is around 93.

5020s.

I think all of us who made cynical predictions that it wasn't really for CanJam have turned out to be correct. Even if jude swoops in and changes it, it will be because of all the complaining rather than to keep his word (the title of his blog is starting to seem a teensy bit ironic now, isn't...

Bump. Won't let this one get swept under the rug.

I guess no one cares anymore . . . just what they were lookin' for, I'm sure.

Also guys, keep in mind that it's very easy to end up with a negative PayPal account balance because of their ridiculous "Buyer Protection" program with absolutely zero seller protection. Let's say you and Mr. X agree on a deal to sell an RS-1 to him for $500. You agree on a mode of shipment...

None, because they're insanely stupid (including certain unmentionable topics on this forum).

Quite an interesting story for my 21st. You'll all hear about it later. Thanks!
