Yeah, that's right, ko0ky. We know who you *really* are. And we've had
you dancing to our tune, ko0king out in public "secure" in the knowledge
that we'd misidentified you. Only you were being trolled, and you fell
for it hook, line, and sinker. (We also know that Dick Stuckey is not
Checkmate either, just for the record.)

And now you're up for five kOok awards under your real name, *and* have
already *won* a sixth, for fuck's sake.

Feeling stupid yet?

Yes, that's right, half the US government is up for a Bobo. Why? For
having driven internet pioneer and free speech activist Anton Swartz to
suicide with a malicious and groundless federal prosecution that sought
decades of jail time for a victimless act that didn't actually even
violate the letter or spirit of the law.

I'm no geek and even I know about conservation of energy and that if you
make something's orbit wider it also slows down. Hall's infinitely
self-feeding black hole takes the ludicrous cake, but his asteroid that
goes into a wider orbit without changing speed when nudged comes in as a
close second.
