Actually, it's a $1,024 "morsel"---more than the amount you owe Brad.

I just described and offered a very reasonable test. I'd state it again, but anyone who cares can simply look upthread for it. > Same with the Ray White receptionist, keeps asking and asking for more > pay slips and proof of income then has me arrested when I mention I > work with CAMGIRLS.com No, that wasn't about you "working" with camgirls (who have nothing to do with you and probably never will), but rather with her assessment that you have no income. > Same with CHANNEL 9 LAWYER when I tried to sue for defamation.

You didn't even *try* to come up with an excuse this time! OK, let's sweeten the pot a little. Instead of the $1024 prize for getting 20 of 20 right, I'll drop the odds a bit. Instead of 20 questions, we'll just have 10. Get just *half* of them right (that's 5 for arithmetically-challenged folks), and I'll pay you $1. Then I'll *quadruple* it for every extra one you get right. That's right, get 6 right, and you get $4, 7 right gets you $16, 8 right gets you $64, 9 right gets you $256, and getting all 10 right gets you $1024! Are you really going to snub your nose at the chance to both prove your abilities *and* to make a little better than a grand? How long does it take for you to make that much money on your public assistance? And no risk! Oh, and of course, I have not done anything to prevent anyone else from participating in your tests. That's just your paranoia speaking. Even though I have seven times as much magic power as you have, it isn't enough to force other people to avoid you. That's all down to you. I guess it's fair enough to wonder why I do this. On the one hand, I know that you'll never agree to a reasonable test. Even if you did (which would amaze everyone *far* more than your cloud pics do), you'd fail that test. On the other hand, I retain enough open-mindedness to be willing to be convinced, even after you've shown yourself a deluded loon so many times in the past.
