[19:23]	IsambardPrince	MinceR: "This is the part where you fall down." -Johnny Cage (Mortal Kombat 1995)
[19:23]	IsambardPrince	That's sort of what's going on in my sister-in-law's house.
[19:24]	IsambardPrince	The lawsuit from Capital One is the first domino to fall as far as lawsuits.
[19:24]	IsambardPrince	But it takes them about a year or 18 months for that to happen.
[19:24]	MinceR	:>
[19:24]	IsambardPrince	They looked her over, decided she had assets, kept the account in-house.
[19:24]	IsambardPrince	Probably tried to negotiate with her, but she hired a lawyer somehow, and there's no defense.
[19:24]	IsambardPrince	So she wasted negotiating money on a lawyer.
[19:25]	IsambardPrince	But you don't just drop one thing when you can't pay your bills.
[19:25]	IsambardPrince	So I know her FICO score is totaled.
[19:25]	IsambardPrince	"This is the part where you fall down."
[19:25]	IsambardPrince	On the 26th we will see how the arbitration went.
[19:26]	IsambardPrince	It doesn't say whether she requested it or they did.
[19:26]	IsambardPrince	It's in most credit card agreements that either side can request it.
[19:26]	IsambardPrince	But that takes it out of a court of law, and it puts it in front of corporate lawyers hired by and paid by the credit card company.
[19:27]	IsambardPrince	So it's not uncommon for them to file credit card cases in court, then immediately request that their own case be taken out of court, but with another court date pending to make an arbitration decision enforceable immediately.
[19:29]	IsambardPrince	MinceR: A local alderwoman got arrested.
[19:29]	IsambardPrince	She requested a mail in ballot in the name of her mother and voted on it and mailed it in after signing it.
[19:29]	IsambardPrince	The problem was that her mother had died and the coroner had just mailed in the death certificate to the county clerk.
[19:29]	IsambardPrince	So the ballot got counted, then the death certificate arrived.
[19:30]	IsambardPrince	And they realized so if this woman died last month, how did she request a ballot this month, vote on it, and put it in the mail?
[19:31]	nobody	IsambardPrince: there's been another related trick, continued retirement payments

[23:57]	IsambardPrince	They had technology about 150 years ahead of Earth, which was desperate for some sort of defense against the Goa'uld, and all they demanded for it was heavy water.
[23:58]	IsambardPrince	Earth only encountered four human societies that were ahead of us in technology I think. During the entire run of the show.
[23:59]	IsambardPrince	I liked it when they asked for advanced technology from one of them and he says "No, you'd blow yourselves up with it. Or worse, someone else."
