The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Dallas - Texan town which saw the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
I've read bunches of stuff about the assassination from both, conspiracy theorist as well as from supporters of the "lone nut" theory supporters (who say it was Lee Harvey Oswald acting on his own). Summing everything up I've read, I do not think that it is possible that it was Oswald, least of all on his own.

^ I tend to believe he did it, But the Warren Commission did such a poor job that we'll never know for sure if Oswald acted alone or , if he had help, who helped him.

^ If there was a conspiracy it is likely that Oswald was involved in it. However, as he was considered a poor shooter by the marines and had no traces of nitrates on his hands when this was checked after his arrest (usually you find nitrate on hands if somebody fired a gun) I don't think it is likely that he actually shot.

Emscher - A creek that runs through my hometown Dortmund and through some other nearby towns. As it was used as a drain for many years it was really destroyed and stinky. Fortunately some serious action is undertatken to reanimate the Emscher.
