It's quite simple really, I have two e-mail accounts :)  Agora goes to my
"home" mailbox at the Cleveland Freenet, and I sub all the Ackanomic stuff to
my account at the Detroit Freenet.  (I also have a freenet account in 
Washington D.C.)

Freenets is k00l.  :)

Subject: Acka: A Duel! 

Mohammed, you are hereby challenged to a duel. Guy Fawkes has challenged
you, and I am his second. 

His reasons for the challenge follow, and I must say that I am in full
agreement with him -- the honor of our beloved Gnome must be preserved.

I'm going for at least 8, but my recent conversion a a belief in the

This proposal will bring us back to the dread days when everyone was voting
no on proposals they actually liked just gain position.  I fear if this
passes, many fine proposals will fail as a multitude of players each try to
block the author from recieving a bonus vote...

Acka RULES!

Mind you, *rumor* has it that there is a nomic out there which is being
created with the sole purpose of waging a Holy War against Ackanomic.

Really?  Which one would that be?  You know, the beautiful thing about 
nomic is that no one can wage war against you without your permission.  
If you don't like them, you can always propose them into nonexistence :)

Like I said, rumor. And Robert will back me on this, it's unlikely to
happen. But never the less, we did talk about it.

My turn to say... "Really?" Not quite, not quite. Look how hard some people
tried to wish another (nameless here) nomic didn't exist.

Welcome back.

My records indicate that you own a Prosthetic Forehead, your house and
land, and are Silly.

I am giving you the 10 Bond Promissary Techno that I own, assuming
you Ack the transaction.  I do not believe they will become actual bonds,
but a proposal is in the works to fix that.

I am also giving you A$52 so that you are not completely penniless.
