What is the point of allowing anonymous posting ? Anyone can read the threads here, if they wish to contribute then it only takes a few minutes to register, I'm a member of 4 differnent forums and this is the only one that allows it.

Ah! Ha! I get it. There is no freak'in perpetual motion.
Well you sir are wrong. For there is.

It took me months and hours, minutes and days.

I used lots of springs and several weights.

Some on the outside and some in the middle.

I did all this to crack Bessler's riddle.

When I was done I came to a notion.

Bessler's wheel was truly, perpetual motion.

It doesn't say "freak'in", it says "Freak in", or were you just having some fun writing that poem (as it appears to be) in this pointless thread?

Since this is a pointless thread, I think I'll just tack this on here instead of putting it in my signature.

MrTim, to clarify....you 'think' you know 'who' it is. I would say you may know approxymately 'who' it is, being's how it is my IP address you just posted and I am not the originator of the message. The message was to me, actually. A way of getting a point across. point taken.....well taken. And well intercepted as 'who' may see.
The Point

Well MrTim,

That was the whole point of the thread, to see how honest the host and logs of this forum are. You have answered my question.
Always one step ahead.
I never trust anyone who says they are looking to help someone out for they are really looking to help out themselves.

Point taken?

I still don't understand, what conclusion have you come to, why, and what is this point taken stuff? Was this just all an attempt to see if someone will try to get info on other people here? It's not dishonest to do that, your computer makes it available to everyone in the world for a reason. And it's not that much info, esp. if you are using a shared computer.

Hi Mr. Tim

Thanks for the info and the number. Seidata is right down the road from me in Dillsboro, In.

Sounds like someone's playing games.

Patrick, if you are in Toronto, as listed, how can you have a 206.162.XXX.XXX number, since these are Sei's server numbers?

Sounds like someone's taking little bits and pieces from everyone here and creating characters.

No accusations at anyone on here, for sure, but this is crap.
