Did you sell all your books or was that part of the ploy?

They did not all sell. I have maybe 40 or 50 left. I did sell over 200 books and about half the Go Worlds. You can see what is left by looking at http://www.onlineauction.com/store/FloydPreciousMetals.

I did make several thousand dollars on what I sold and bought silver with it at prices much lower than current prices so I ended up making a very nice profit overall.

Welcome. ( But I have mixed feelings about saying that because I thought that you were iamnotwhoyouthinkiam. Now that you are not him, maybe it is Sakata? )

That's hilarious. I never would have thought that Sakata and Dr. Straw were the same person. I was pretty sure that IAmNotWhoYouThinkIAm was Sakata but... Yes, well played indeed. And to think, I bought some books from you Sakata - you were so nice. I suppose another tip off should have been that he doesn't use eBay, a signature Sakata thing to do.

So how are we going to address you now Sakata-DrStraw-IAmNotWhoYouThinkIAm? How about "Hermes" - a god of many faces. I mean you're probably old enough to be a Greek god anyway, right? :mrgreen:

Glad to see you back in your "true" form. :) I must say I've long suspected this, and when IANWYTIA showed up it merely confirmed my suspicions. Welcome again!

Maybe you should use a compromise nick, like DrStrakata.

I think it's time now to reveal that sol.ch. (araban) and Joaz are in fact the same person. When you think that he played a Malkovich game against himself just to confound us...

Wait, Dr. Straw and Dr. Straw Book Sales were the same person? :)

Oh come on, it's time "we" stop this nonsense and start taking "our" meds. We all know there's only one member of this forum. "We" just have a very complex dissociative identity disorder. The real reason we left GD was because we just couldn't stand all our other 4000+ personalities. Damn, We're talking to ourselves again. :-?

Bigger than a 20 point corner? ;-)

Anyway, howdy Doc, good to see you.
