No idea what they are worth now, but they will be worth $10 in just

The phrase "off your meds" is an Internet cliché but after your
strange repetition of your question about the date on the Philippine
coin that was answered several times before you stopped asking, and
now this...

Quick - what year is it now? And most importantly...

Tell us again the year on those quarters... after you've taken your
meds and looked at a calendar.

BTW, they stopped handing out Kook of the Month and Troll of the Month
awards years ago - way too many candidates these days - so you're
wasting your time competing for those.

Troll boy reminds me of a mystery theater repeat I heard on some
streaming audio website. Some guy found a quarter in his pocket that
had a mint mark a few years later than the current year. He had it
appraised and it was worth a quarter :0)

OK, if you really do have 2010 US quarters they are fake because the current
year is 2008. Their value could be 0, however I'm willing to give you 2X
face value for them.
If you have a 40 coin roll that would be $20 plus shipping costs.
Let me know.

The pier on Key West where U.S. Route 1 terminates in the south. It's
the first in a series of 50 quarters, running south to north, that
will commemorate various historic Rte. 1 waypoints including HoJo
restaurants and Stuckey's Pecan Log Roll stores, a roadside alligator
farm, one dinosaur exhibit, all the Dew Drop Inns, and 4 places where
George Washington slept. It will be mandated by Congress early in the
2009 session. I-95 will get its own historic series of dollar coins.

A real historic "I-95" series would center around 301 and A1A-- a nostalgic
nightmare for those of us who made that east coastal drive before I-95. On
the good side, one could stop at most any bank and swap a $1 bill for a

301 ... UGH! Brings up memories of my numerous trips from
New Joisey to Florider to visit the grandfolks in WPB ...

It seemed like it took almost as long to get through Georgia
as it did to get from NJ to the GA state line ... and HOORAY
when we hit Ft. Pierce and could get back on a "zoom road" ...

Whatever happened to those shacks by the side of the road
with people who looked like extras from "Deliverance" selling
woven baskets and iron pots and pans??

Some of them are still standing by the side of the same road, except that
road now is hidden a few miles off the 80mph freeway. Most of the people
from "Deliverance" are now greeters at the local WalMart.

Always Learning,
I was thinking about you the other day when I ran across a coin book in a
used book store that has your Phillipines 5 centavos coin in it. The book
is dated 1969 and may not have the correct value but it has many very
intresting coins in it. It is " A guide bok of United States Coins" 22 ed.
1969 and (no offense) it's red. I will send you this book for free. All you
have to do is let me know your address. mjmwcs "at" htcomp "dot" net
I'll be reading it until you decide.

They let coal mining companies tear the tops off of mountains and dump
the toxic waste rock into streambeds. It's not just squirrels and
birds that are affected. People living near these are getting
seriously sick.

They've created a loophole for air pollution by coal power plants. A
plant now can exceed the maximum limits for polluting national
parkland if its historic average amounts of pollution did not exceed
the limit. That's like being stopped for speeding and telling the
officer "Yes, I just exceeded the speed limit but my past average of
driving speeds has been below the posted limits so you can't write me
a ticket."

We might shake our heads at marginally questionable examples such as
saving snail darters and owls, but the Bush administration's
environmental record has been atrocious, to say the least.

the fact that you missed to whom I was addressing my caustic comment

Anyone who can not see the value in preserving species is a real dim bulb.

Now if they have a problem with the types of people that tend to get really
fired up about environmental concerns to the point that they are irrational,
well, I can't fault anyone for that.

Preserving species to what end? To look at? And at what expense? And
which species? Obscure plants, too? Should polar bears be in danger of
becoming extinct due to gradual climate change, that's too bad. Should they
be in danger of becoming extinct due to excessive hunting, like bison and
whales, that's plain bad and indeed should be corrected. Otherwise, there
have been hundreds of animals that became extinct during the past couple
generations without public notice or adverse effect.

If you're saying you find no fault with irrational environmentalists, I
guess we'd disagree on that, too.

How on earth did you get that from my paraphraph? It may not be the best
sentence construction ever, granted. To be clear: I am not faulting anyone
who loathes envrionmental extremists.

Okay, maybe I am. I just thought you were making a blanket statement about
people who believe we often go overboard with specie preservation in
general.

Well your paragraph did confuse me a bit, even after trying to break it down
like we had to do in school. Maybe it was confusion over the "they" and
"anyone" antecedents. Antway, glad to see we both loathe environmental
extremists..........or, whatever.

The truth almost always lies in the middle, so, yeah there has to be a
balance. I have been reading your posts long enough to know that you are
intelligent enough to realize that if we lose too many species that will be
EXTREMELY bad for business. We will all be screwed.

What I am saying is that if someone outright dismisses the idea of species
preservation as an important issue then they are truly stupid.

Even the faction of the Republican party that has more religion than brains
need only actually read their Bible and see that we are held responsible by
God to preserve all life on earth.

Too many pronouns will kill you. Or get you a rap on the knuckles with a
ruler-wielding nun.

I tend to think Bush and Cheney et. al. are very cynical when it comes to
species preservation and only want to do what is best for business. As long
as it lines their pockets in the short term, who cares about the long term?
If gutting the endangered species act is not a manifestation of their
cynicism then I would be very interested for someone to explain to my why
this is a good thing.

The one species whose extinction would really benefit the planet would
be that of Homo Sapiens. All other species would breath a sigh of relief
and eventually the natural dynamic balance would be restored.

There just might be enough time left before the Sun goes nova for a new
genus of Man to emerge from the primordial soup and evolve into something
better than us. Wait, the primordial soup is gone, and so are the easy
natural resources, so maybe not.

That is a contradiction surely? If HS, or anything else, are in any sort
driving seat it is not then a natural dynamic balance.

The others did not possess sentience. We do (apart from game show hosts
and politicians), and this sentience is being horribly misused.

The very tip of the iceberg is greed and dishonesty, like the sale of
these fake coins from China, to name just one of ten billion examples.

Are you suggesting that homa sapiens are not natural creatures in the
evolution cycle? The fact that we were endowed with the brains to steer our
destiny allows us to choose our options to sway any dynamic balance in our
favor. Until the roaches and killer ants take over one day, we are indeed
in the driver's seat. Live with it.

That they didn't posess sentience (yes, I had to look it up) is simply part
of the natural balance. Luck of the natural draw. If you're religious, you
could say God wasn't ready to hand it out yet. The interim option was a
survival instinct. According to the majority, this sentience now is being
used the way most homo sapiens want to use it, coupled with their survival
instinct. That some may disagree with the way things are going means
little.

Do you believe that early creatures did not express greed and dishonesty in
their own crude way? It's not exclusive to us homo sapiens. We just
refined it a bit.

Good idea. Back to coins.

As a pet owner I can assure you that dogs and cats understand
fairness, embarrasment, loyalty, duty, pride, and a whole range of
emotions most humans assume they can not possibly have. I think it is
likely that at the very least, most mammals are capable of these
emotions.

There was a recent study, reported in the news, demonstrating that dogs
had a concept of "fairness". It has long been known that primates have
"politics". And of course it was obvious from the begining that cats
consider themselves to be the lords of all creation.

Several years ago we had a small dog that would be in the huff for about two
weeks after we returned from holiday, him being looked after, very well, by
friends while we were away.

He as acutely aware of the unfairness of us going away on holiday without
him.

For those who have never had a dog, every dog is different in the same way

Are you for real? What the fuck do you think this is? Narnia? Animals
have primal emotions, which is the same as having almost no emotion at all.
Animals were put on Earth for man to torment and exploit as he pleases.
They are furs and meat just waiting to happen.

A lot of dogs are worthless and need to be blown out of this world, or put
in a pit to tear each other to pieces.
