That thread cracked me up. Especially the posts by those that thought you had to get REALLY close to the monitor to enable it to pick up the sound waves. Zeev is cool! 909's, -Joe

Josef, Though I sent to FBN my congratulations, I wanted to do so here on Techride. As soon as I saw the first post saying "I smell money" I knew some people were going to get rich or suckered. My money was on them being suckers. What a great hoax and I will admit, you had me going for a while. I can't imagine the fun you all had putting it together and then watching it snow ball. A TRUE CLASSIC. Did you notice how fast the board went away from the HOT ranks? I'll bet GNET had people begging to take down their post. I see the whole Hoax as a win-win for us all. The ones that got suckered will be more careful, FBN Associates got some great press, and guys like me got to LOAO. Thanks again, BLUE
