shinohai: typically it's organized along the lines of the nyc 'death ray plot' -- find a 'believer' halfwit who 'participates willingly' to circumvent what's left of entrapment laws; collect donations; then designated arrestee, pompous trial, life sentence, etc. while usg collects not only contents of donation box but a fresh +100m$ in congressional 'anti-terror fund' |

i.e. can't get'em outside of vz, and if you show up inside and ask for 3406023552, you get instead cracked skull |

I dunno I kinda lost track, they renamed them to "Bolivar fuertes" or something. Perhaps BingoBoingo knows. |
