You know, I didn't even notice it but a mod participated on this thread...

... and GP is still GP-banned!

UR, UR DA MAN!

pulp SF collection?

Ming, unban him, I want to know what he's got!

[Kidlicious]

He's not banned though. So you can't really unban him.

[Dinner]

Let's make him give us free stuff before we unlock his account. Let him post at FFZ until he can raise the ransom.

You can PM him, even while banned.

Are we to take it he's lost 15 pounds already? If so, he could probably make millions just by sharing his miraculous secret. And get to keep all of his junk as well.

Crack cocaine would explain his weight loss as well as the crap he posts.

I read that book.

It wasn't that bad (assuming you meant the science content, not the writing style). Benford is a physics professor and his science extrapolations, while bordering on the fantastic, are based in then-current theory (as opposed to a lot of hand-waving that you'll find in SF authors not all that big on the science (Connie Willis, Harry Turtledove, etc.))

We can say anything about GP and he can't reply.

but...I'll be kind...

GP, you da man!

Welcome back! (If you ever actually get back)

[Ming]

If TCO sends me a PM, I will release him (or any other staff member would as well) since he is the one that asked to be restricted.

I will not do so simply because a third party has requested it

SO.... TCO... you want to post again... JUST TELL ME!

[Lancer]

That's overly complicated.

[Winston]

Welease... Bwian!

Yeah, Bwian, that's a good one

[Ming]

He's been through this many times... all he needs to do is send a PM.

However, on another note... the next person that posts a thread asking for us to release him will find themselves in a similar position to TCO... but they won't be able to request a quick release

Y'know, I actually helped build the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Lab. I helped construct the power transmission line and helped build, test and install the kicker magnets that shunted the particles from the old, smaller collider (the AGS, Alternating Gradient Synchrotron) to RHIC.

Great place to work, BNL.

OK Ming, GP sent me a PM. You can open his account.
