>> TooConservative-- Before you just shut it down, have you done any tally of results? Just eyeballing it, it looks like tpaine is probably above 60%.

>> Sneakypete---- Seems to ME that if TPaine is serious he would quit being a wuss and stand up like a man and say he will accept a 51 percent vote tally by regular posters as a victory and step up to the plate.

----It isn't me that would have to be a man and take all the bullshit... It would be the moderator. And my choice for mod would have been TooConservative, or Sneakypete, or even better, both of you.

----Tell you what, if you two take over mod/tech functions, I'd be willing to put up the money for the first year as the 'owner', and take responsibly for any legal problems we might encounter.

>> After all,he has never pretended to be anything other than a Libertarian with a "Big L",and since when have Bil L Libertarians ever demanded a 75 percent vote for anything?

-----I've never belonged to the big 'L' party. I consider myself a constitutional libertarian, who votes (mostly) republican.

>> In MY mind,if he doesn't man up and and accept ownership if he gets the majority of the votes,he was never serious about it to start with.

---I'll call your bluff. Put up (joining me, as above) or shut up about man-ing up.

>> I personally hope this isn't the case because I think all political discussion boards need Big L Libertarian owners/moderators. Anyone else and they just turn into partisan party arms preaching the party line with no dissent allowed. Without dissent there is no discussion.

---Here's your chance to put your man-ing up with your mouth. How bout it?

Are you aware of the thread you're posting on? -- Just above I made a serious offer to both TC and S'Pete about hosting LP for another year.

If they want to do it, I'm in for the money (probably about $300 for the year). Granted, that ain't much anymore, but it would seriously cramp my fine wine fund.

You have to pardon my doubting you. But expecting LP's herd of cats to agree 75% on any question seemed a bit much.

It's a moot point now. I think the election was held and Neil said close it down. His was the vote that actually counted.

It is clear you aren't serious now, nor have you ever been about spending a dime on the forums you tirelessly post your windbaggery.

Goldi-Lox once called you a "pain in the ass" for your endless 'look at me' exchanges about donating a paltry $100 to LP. You never donated it either.

The kicker was after somebody mentioned the 100 dollar donation to LP bet that you made and never paid off.

You sure as sensitive about that term. Why? Goldi ran that same web site for years. How "manly" was SHE?

Women runs tens of thousands of web sites.

I may be wrong,but I think your idea was to pose and cause conflict. Based mainly on the fact that you never paid up on the bet you lost. If you do that once,you will do it often.

WE, --- meaning you, TC, and I still could 'accept', and I'd bet the sysadmin over there would turn the site over to us.

Not anymore. It's over.

Besides,with my temper who would seriously consider me as a mod?

Besides,as a moderator I really wouldn't be able to join in on any discussions. Moderators have to/should stay personally aloof from all the dust being raised. How else can they remain impartial and fair? Even if they were,there would be a segment that would never believe I didn't moderate in order to enforce my personal POV instead of trying to lower the noise ratio.

I never made such an unconditional bet.

Ahhh,the devil is in the details! I freely admit I only paid casual interest in the events leading up to that bet and the precise details that defined it,but I do remember to the casual viewer (me) it sure as hell looked like you lost and refused to pay up.

And I'm not proud of that fact, the way things turned out.

Nor should you be,but I do give you credit for admitting you didn't pay up.

And dancing around and complaining about "fine details" does you no credit. You lost and refused to pay off a measly 100 dollar donation to LP bet. Your own sense of pride and self-respect should have forced you to pay up to avoid questions being asked,and the fact that you didn't pay up does not speak well for your character. If you can't be trusted to pay off a lousy 100 bet,how can you be trusted to do anything else you say you will do?

Your own sense of pride and self-respect should have forced you to pay up to avoid questions being asked,and the fact that you didn't pay up does not speak well for your character. If you can't be trusted to pay off a lousy 100 bet,how can you be trusted to do anything else you say you will do?

You're going beyond the line with your suppositions, and I don't have a clue why you're doing it. -- Something else bothering you, bubba?

Yes,numbnuts. You trying to pass yourself off as a victim.

More unsupported bullshit from a strangely disturbed fella. I expected better from you.

You made the bet,you lost the bet,and now you are trying to pass yourself off as a "victim of a technicality. It remind me of Bubba Bill defending his perjury by claiming "It all depends on what the definition of "is",is". --- I expected better of you.

It appears we're both disappointed about each other's character. --- BFD. -- I'll learn to live with your odd opinion of mine. I suggest you do the same.

Just received a couple of emails from the Sysadmin-LP, -- in his first he tried to apologize for any 'unnecessary aggravation' he had caused me.

I replied that being unfairly banned from websites was no big deal (twice in 18 years?, shrug) but that because he called me a criminal, I couldn't accept his apology, - - although I thanked him for the amusing 'election'....

His reply: ----

Oh, I forgot to mention that all further email from you will be automatically deleted without being read. Believe it or not I don't harbor any particularly ill will, I just don't want to be bothered. Your phony offer to take over LP was actually helpful in the end. As I said, have a nice life.

Not at all.

He chickened out. You do realize that tomorrow is the last day of Goldi's annual DNS subscription?

sysadmin had already renewed it, apparently under his own name. I advised against this. I think he finally realized that the only thing about LP that was Goldi's was the domain name (libertypost.org & .net).

So he's closing it at noon tomorrow because at midnight tomorrow night, he would be using Goldi's pilfered property for his own purposes, however innocent those might actually be.

You weren't any legal threat to him compared to the actual legal peril he put himself in. And what do you suppose would happen the first time he made someone really really mad? They'd make complaints that he pilfered the domain name, might make fiduciary complaints against him concerning the handling of a deceased person's property. And that domain name was the only part of LP that Goldi actually owned and that had a real value, however negligible.

But by turning the domain into a memorial, no one can say that he took it for himself unlawfully. And he never actually wanted it to begin with anyway.

The DNS issue and his own bizarre ever-changing election with new candidates and new options and new scoring methods ending in complete tatters were why he pulled the plug. That and Neil telling him to close it. Neil's vote probably counted more than the rest of us put together because they knew each other personally for about 15 years.

And for all his whining about how awful we were and how awful all his friends thought we were, he actually did almost no moderating at all.

He pulled the plug at noon on the 14th because Goldi's DNS expires at midnight.

The rest is just a smokescreen and him trying to cover his own rather shameful election debacle.

Why bother? He'd just spin another set of self-serving half-truths. He might even be able to make himself believe they're true. Look at that mutating election and how he kept ridiculously telling us how fair it was, how it was exactly what you wanted...he was obviously an experienced (but inept) blame-shifter.

But a coincidence of shutting down within 12 hours of the new DNS ownership under his own name taking effect? At best, the odds are 1 in 730 in any given year that that could happen in a single 12 hour period. That's a lot of coincidence in my book.

Well, he can surrender it to the estate's appointed lawyer if asked.

But he certainly couldn't do that if he had bought it himself and then resold it to tpaine or Pericles.

That situation is what likely determined the outcome and the sudden pulling of the plug.

Line up the incentives and chart the path of least resistance and the lowest threat level and that is what people will always choose, almost without exception.

The only thing Goldi actually owned was the domain name and control of the database. There are fiduciary laws that deal with people appropriating the property of deceased persons.

I tried to tell them that they should place an advance order to snap up libertypost.org as soon as it expired. That might be considered a little unethical but completely legal.

As of midnight, all that sysadmin does at LP is on his own head. In addition, if he did sell (or give) the domains to tpaine or Pericles, he couldn't surrender them. And troublemakers could always try to denounce him to the DNS authorities at ICANN as a domain thief.

I tried to explain these angles but was probably too longwinded and got ignored. But I did it well before he renewed those domain names under his own name.

I think that he simply didn't anticipate the can-of-worms that he plunged into.

But what you said about the real legal repurcussions of assuming ownership makes sense, so I agree that shutting LP down and putting up a memorial is the only thing that makes sense. Maybe one of these days Goldi's true family and next-of-kin will come across it and be comforted by the cyber-tribute left behind in her memory.

- - -

[tpaine #88] Quite a few of us here questioned the assumption that Goldie 'empowered' anyone.

- - -

[Willie Green #90] Question it all you want.
If she didn't "empower" anybody to pull the plug, then we'd all still be posting there, including you because sysadmin wouldn't have had the power to ban you.

- - -

[tpaine #93] Sysadmin simply assumed the power. -- Both he and Neil had the power because they were her tech administrators.

It was stated that no will was found. Any grant of power by Goldi to sysadmin or Neil or anyone else was extinguished by her death.

Sysadmin had the password to access the system.

Unless Goldi did not own LP when she died, neither sysadmin, nor Neil, were lawfully "empowered" to do anything that they did. Because they had the password, they had the ability to do things. They were no longer "empowered" by Goldi to do anything.

Prior to Goldi's death, sysadmin was empowered by Goldi to act on her behalf. After Goldi's death, that power ceased to exist and no new power was bestowed from the heavens.

I believe Neil had ceased to have any agent relationship to Goldi for years prior to her death. He could not have been empowered to do anything by her death.

In the absence of any identified relative, all of Goldi's estate will go to the State of Florida under the control of a state appointed executor. The executor will be tasked with identifying the content of the estate and to auction it off or dispose of it. That would include Goldi's interests in Liberty Post.

You know none of this as fact, unless of course you had been named in Goldi's will or are the next of kin. Why are you specualting? IMO shutting down LP was the most righteous thing to do and the best tribute to Goldi, unless of course you have a Goldi clone waiting in the wings - and even then that would not be sufficient to maintain Goldi's memory.

But I am all ears, pray tell what you believe would have been the best disposition on LP on Goldi's demise, especially when apparently she left no instructions or even expressed a preference (unless she did ti sysadmin and Neil at some time).

BTW, it's you don't know nothin'.

It is you who hides behind a mask here, afraid to reveal yourself because, obviously, you know you made yourself hated at LP. It is the only reason anyone would hide their LP identity. Deckard is IW, Hondo was Booshbot, Pericles was Destro/Godwinson. They aren't hiding anything. But you are. Because you know what our reaction is to your psychopathic personality.

Yours is the claim that needs to be proven. I made no claim. But I will give you the courtesy of citing that there readily could have been private communications to one or both of them wherein Goldi expressed her wishes. I am certain that this has some legal weight. Besides IMO this would be an infinitely more preferable disposition of LP than leaving it to the state to decide. Chances are the state would not even known of LP's existence as part of Goldi's estate. Further, someone would need to have paid the bills before all would have been lost on defualt or non-payment. Who do you think would have foreclosed on LPs assets? Would that have been a more fitting tribute to Goldi's memory?

First, I admitted right off that I have no such direct knowledge. Second, I am not a lawyer. Third, and most significantly, he made a claim without offering any evidence that he had personal knowledge of the situtation. He is entirely free to express his opinion, which on legal matters may very likely be more informed than mine.

I see you cannot even create a possible scenario where sysadmin and/or Neil acquired any authority to act.

A real or imaginary private communication of Goldi's wishes is not a will. It carries zero legal weight. If Goldi died intestate, as stated by sysadmin, the estate goes to the nearest relative, if one can be found. Absent a living relative, the estate goes to the state.

There is no exception in the law that gives the estate, or any part thereof, to someone who claims that the decedent made a private communication expressing something or other to sysadmin.

http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0700-0799/0732/0732.html

732.101 Intestate estate.—

(1) Any part of the estate of a decedent not effectively disposed of by will passes to the decedent’s heirs as prescribed in the following sections of this code.

(2) The decedent’s death is the event that vests the heirs’ right to the decedent’s intestate property.

- - - - -

732.107 Escheat.—

(1) When a person dies leaving an estate without being survived by any person entitled to a part of it, that part shall escheat to the state.

(2) Property that escheats shall be sold as provided in the Florida Probate Rules and the proceeds paid to the Chief Financial Officer of the state and deposited in the State School Fund.

(3) At any time within 10 years after the payment to the Chief Financial Officer, a person claiming to be entitled to the proceeds may reopen the administration to assert entitlement to the proceeds. If no claim is timely asserted, the state’s rights to the proceeds shall become absolute.

(4) The Department of Legal Affairs shall represent the state in all proceedings concerning escheated estates.

(5)(a) If a person entitled to the proceeds assigns the rights to receive payment to an attorney, Florida-certified public accountant, or private investigative agency which is duly licensed to do business in this state pursuant to a written agreement with that person, the Department of Financial Services is authorized to make distribution in accordance with the assignment.

(b) Payments made to an attorney, Florida-certified public accountant, or private investigative agency shall be promptly deposited into a trust or escrow account which is regularly maintained by the attorney, Florida-certified public accountant, or private investigative agency in a financial institution authorized to accept such deposits and located in this state.

(c) Distribution by the attorney, Florida-certified public accountant, or private investigative agency to the person entitled to the proceeds shall be made within 10 days following final credit of the deposit into the trust or escrow account at the financial institution, unless a party to the agreement protests the distribution in writing before it is made.

(d) The department shall not be civilly or criminally liable for any proceeds distributed pursuant to this subsection, provided such distribution is made in good faith.

Absent a living relative, the estate goes to the state.

So you prefer that the state disposed of LP?

"I see you cannot even create a possible scenario where sysadmin and/or Neil acquired any authority to act."

As I said, I am not a lawyer and will readily defer to one on the matter. But you stated an exception, namely Goldi not being the owner of LP (whatever owner means). As you well know, the one that pays the bills is not always the owner.

But I will concede the point to you in all respects. Now I ask you, so what is to been done about it? Who had the legal respopnsiblity for LP upon Goldi's death? If the state, did it immediately step in? What would have been the reasonable time expectation for the state to have marshalled Goldi's estate and deal with LP? Would LP have even shown up in the state's marshalling? Are you going to sue sysadmin and/or Neil? Can tpaine or pericles sue them for wisking away LP from their grasp?

Beside the domain name, what assets does/did LP have? There were those of us that wanted our personal information redacted if ownership passed to another person and made this known to sysadmin and/or Neil.

And you keep telling us how well-known you were at LP and how many posters here at LF know your LP handle.

First, witless, I never made a claim with respect to being well known or not on LP. Still best to loosen those panties a bit and get some circulation to your brain. Second, witless, I never said how many on LF know, whether that was a lot or a little. But to help you sleep better tonight I will tell you that..............you will never know, at least not from me.

     What is this persistent reference to canary cage and canaries? Obviously I missed the memo.
Canary: "I don't know anything about this Canary cage..."
Anyone who posted at LP knows what a Canary is.
And you keep telling us how well-known you were at LP and how many posters here at LF know your LP handle. So name them.
But you won't, will you?

I like you dude. But to be honest you have been badgering (SOSO) since his first post. Or close to it.
So if anyone came in here and read the conversations from the beginning.
They would agree. It seems like anything he said is a reaction.

So you prefer that the state disposed of LP?

I stated no personal preference. I stated what the law says must be done. As one preference though, I would prefer that the site not go into the hands of a robber or felon or anyone with a Federal Bureau of Prisons Number.

But you stated an exception, namely Goldi not being the owner of LP (whatever owner means). As you well know, the one that pays the bills is not always the owner.

If Goldi was not the owner at her death, then someone else was. I have no indication that anyone else was the owner at the time of Goldi's death. Nobody else ever claimed to be the owner and Goldi was listed as the registrant until a change was made at the end of December.

Who had the legal respopnsiblity for LP upon Goldi's death? If the state, did it immediately step in? What would have been the reasonable time expectation for the state to have marshalled Goldi's estate and deal with LP? Would LP have even shown up in the state's marshalling?

Responsibility passed to the state of Florida for Goldi's estate. They work on attempting to find a will, trying to identify relatives near or distant, and identify all assets and dispose of them as stated in the law.

69.164.197.124/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=349764

On December 21, sysadmin advised that,

UPS packages were piling up in front of her condo, so the management called police on November 13th to check on her. She was found deceased inside her condo unit.

http://69.164.197.124/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=349764&Disp=73#C73

On December 22, sysadmin advised,

Goldi's case is in the hands of the "Major Cases Unit" at the sheriff's office which has been attempting unsuccessfully to find next-of-kin. The body is with the Medical Examiner's office and the actual cause of death has not yet been determined.

So, more than five weeks after Goldi's body was discovered, sysadmin reports that the case is in the hands of the Major Cases Unit and the cause of death has not yet been determined.

The Major Cases Unit does not usually investigate death from natural causes for five weeks. The authorities found the cat. They should find Liberty Post with little effort.

As for how fast the state stepped in, maybe they stepped in immediately. What is the Major Cases Unit investigating? Maybe they want to watch and investigate something before going all public.

Are you going to sue sysadmin and/or Neil? Can tpaine or pericles sue them for wisking away LP from their grasp?

For what? I have not been damaged. Neither has tpaine or Pericles either. They only "lost" an opportunity to buy from sysadmin something that could not legally be sold. Even the state of Florida must expend a certain amount of time trying to locate relatives. And we could all still attend the auction.

Beside the domain name, what assets does/did LP have?

LP is not a legal entity and has no assets. Goldi had assets which now belong to the estate of Goldi which include the archive of LP. All of it, including PM and E-mail.

There were those of us that wanted our personal information redacted if ownership passed to another person and made this known to sysadmin and/or Neil. Who legally would have been responsible for assuring that happened before ownership of LP changed hands?

The state of Florida would be responsible since Goldi's death. However, the Major Cases Unit might consider the non-public information to be evidence in an investigation.

"The decedent’s death is the event that vests the heirs’ right to the decedent’s intestate property."

"When a person dies leaving an estate without being survived by any person entitled to a part of it, that part shall escheat to the state."

"Property that escheats shall be sold as provided in the Florida Probate Rules and the proceeds paid to the Chief Financial Officer of the state and deposited in the State School Fund."

Who could I have sued if my personal info wasn't redacted as I expressly wished?

Beats me. I suppose you could ask the state of Florida authorities to take custody of it and protect it.

It seems to me that the old saying applies here, No harm, no foul. But I may be wrong.

The Major Case Unit is not usually called in on no harm, no foul cases and still have them five weeks after the body is found. Why was the Major Case Unit called in?

Unfortunate if so. I have not seen Goldi in person since she moved years ago. I assumed that she had developed a circle of friends and people to hang out with in her new environs, but perhaps that was not the case. (She never really talked much about her personal life.)

I did not assume that it was, or was not, expired. It was not expired when Goldi died and it passed to the custody of the state of Florida. You are free to volunteer to explain to the state of Florida how Panama became involved.

http://www.libertypost.org/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=349905

With the new year upon us I suppose it is time now to discuss where LP is going from here. We do need to bear in mind that anything we decide is contingent on the site not being taken over as part of Goldi's estate. Although very unlikely, it is something that should be kept in mind.

Unless Goldi did not own LP when she died, neither sysadmin, nor Neil, were lawfully "empowered" to do anything that they did. Because they had the password, they had the ability to do things. They were no longer "empowered" by Goldi to do anything.

I'm not a lawyer, so I'm not going to lose any sleep over the legal distinction between "empower" and "having access."

Oh well, Neil & sysadmin still acted responsibly to protect LP from being vandalized until Goldi's estate is settled. And tpaine should thank his lucky stars that he didn't illegally acquire control of Goldi's property.

I'm not a lawyer, so I'm not going to lose any sleep over the legal distinction between "empower" and "having access."

Ability. Capacity to perform an act or service; e.g. to support spouse and family. Financial ability is usually as referring to pecuniary ability.

Empower. A grant of authority rather than a command of its exercise. In re Whiteman's Will, 268 App.Div. 591, 52 N.Y.S.2d 723, 725.

Black's Law Dictionary, 6th Ed.

As sysadmin had the password, he had the capacity or ability to perform certain acts. As Goldi had died and he knew of her death, sysadmin had no authority to perform certain acts performed. He cannot claim any post-mortem empowerment from Goldi.

If tpaine doesn't agree with Neil & sysadmin's decision, he can take them to probate court...

The state appointed executor of the estate should take care of that.

No wait, tpaine doesn't have legal standing to do that, does he? Oh well, Neil & sysadmin still acted responsibly to protect LP from being vandalized until Goldi's estate is settled. And tpaine should thank his lucky stars that he didn't illegally acquire control of Goldi's property.

Unless consider this. He was hired by Goldi for a term of the one year to work on her site. That he had already been paid. And he would have been a crook if he didn't fulfill his obligation. If I agree to install a new tile floor in someones warehouse at the restaurant they own. And the owner dies in the process. And i have the keys to the building and they paid me in advance. I would still be obligated to install that tile.

Whose legal responsibilities? You will see the problem while trying to answer that question. Upon Goldi's death, responsibilities went to the state of Florida. LP was not a legal entity. The responsibilities were Goldi's, personally.

The whole process was flawed. It may have been well intended, but good intent does not overrule state law. The problem is that no will was found and state law gets in the way.

Any grant of authority that he may have had as an agent or employee was extinguished by Goldi's death and his knowledge of that fact.

http://info.legalzoom.com/power-attorney-end-upon-death-20235.html

Death of the Principal

Section 111 of the Uniform Power of Attorney Act provides that the power of attorney terminates when the principal dies. This rule is followed in all states. For example, Florida laws state that a power of attorney expires upon the principal’s death. In this situation, the agent no longer has authority to act on behalf of the principal, and the principal’s successors take over the management of his affairs.

Validation of Agent's Actions

In some situations the agent may not know of the principal’s death and may continue to act under the power of attorney, for example, by paying bills or signing documents. If the agent does not know that the principal has died, the law generally allows him to continue acting as agent until he is notified of the death. For example, Chapter 1337.091 of the Ohio Code states that if an agent carries out his duties without knowing that the principal has died, his actions remain valid, provided that he acts in good faith.

http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0700-0799/0709/0709.html

709.2109 Termination or suspension of power of attorney or agent’s authority.— 
(1) A power of attorney terminates when:
(a) The principal dies;
(b) The principal becomes incapacitated, if the power of attorney is not durable;
(c) The principal is adjudicated totally or partially incapacitated by a court, unless the court determines that certain authority granted by the power of attorney is to be exercisable by the agent;
(d) The principal revokes the power of attorney;
(e) The power of attorney provides that it terminates;
(f) The purpose of the power of attorney is accomplished; or
(g) The agent’s authority terminates and the power of attorney does not provide for another agent to act under the power of attorney.
(2) An agent’s authority is exercisable until the authority terminates. An agent’s authority terminates when:
(a) The agent dies, becomes incapacitated, resigns, or is removed by a court;
(b) An action is filed for the dissolution or annulment of the agent’s marriage to the principal or for their legal separation, unless the power of attorney otherwise provides; or
(c) The power of attorney terminates.
(3) If any person initiates judicial proceedings to determine the principal’s incapacity or for the appointment of a guardian advocate, the authority granted under the power of attorney is suspended until the petition is dismissed or withdrawn or the court enters an order authorizing the agent to exercise one or more powers granted under the power of attorney.
(a) If an emergency arises after initiation of proceedings to determine incapacity and before adjudication regarding the principal’s capacity, the agent may petition the court in which the proceeding is pending for authorization to exercise a power granted under the power of attorney. The petition must set forth the nature of the emergency, the property or matter involved, and the power to be exercised by the agent.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, unless otherwise ordered by the court, a proceeding to determine incapacity does not affect the authority of the agent to make health care decisions for the principal, including, but not limited to, those provided in chapter 765. If the principal has executed a health care advance directive designating a health care surrogate, the terms of the directive control if the directive and the power of attorney are in conflict unless the power of attorney is later executed and expressly states otherwise.
(4) Termination or suspension of an agent’s authority or of a power of attorney is not effective as to an agent who, without knowledge of the termination or suspension, acts in good faith under the power of attorney. An act so performed, unless otherwise invalid or unenforceable, binds the principal and the principal’s successors in interest.

"The Major Case Unit is not usually called in on no harm, no foul cases and still have them five weeks after the body is found. Why was the Major Case Unit called in?"

Excellent question. Based on it I am sooooooooo happy that LP is shut down and that my personal info will be redacted.

I am sooooooooo happy that you are sooooooooo happy in your belief that things on the internet can, with certainty, be made to disappear.

Who knows in what Goldi may have been entangled, with who and why tpaine and pericles were so interested in getting their hands on LP. How's that for setting off another conspiracy thread:)

The Shadow knows. And the first LP server was located at 12 Carroll St., Westminster, MD. And the goings on at that address, including the police raid and the permanent injunctions, and the prison records are matters of public record.

As you know, sysadmin posted:

http://libertypost.org/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=350039&Disp=All&#C461

I've been with LP since Goldi and Neil came up with the idea, helped build the first server, and have worked with it ever since behind the scenes.

Back in 2002, Neil/Pinguinite solicited donations:

Liberty Post

Chan is correct. Sysadmin and Neil had absolutely no right to offer anything to anyone under the Liberty Post name. They were essentially offering what was not theirs to offer to you and or Pericles. With no will and not being corporate officers, their actions were their own and most likely illegal.

They ended up doing the only thing that was legal and let the domain name expire and buy it back up again under sysadmin's name. Any of the old Liberty Post would come under control of whomever Goldi willed it to or the State of Florida. The URL was perfectly legal to buy as the subscription lapsed, but the content would have to be totally removed and replaced with something else.

I am 110% certain that one or both asked a lawyer, after they had started their dog and pony show, as to what was legal or not and were told what to do to avoid any legal trouble.

A sham election conducted by a couple of computer geeks without the common sense God gave a donkey. They are lucky... so far. A government stooge with a little time on their hands could make their lives miserable for a while as they dig into the mess.

The rights to an expired domain name have nothing to do with the archives of some prior user of the domain name. It gets authority to use the name only.

Exactly. Any and all content, without being willed to them or part of a corporate agreement, isn't theirs.

They own the URL only. Nothing more. They attempted an illegal transfer of information that wasn't theirs to transfer.

Correct again Mr Obvious. I have neither standing nor the faintest desire to sue any one for anything. -- Get a grip on your imagination.

Oh well, Neil & sysadmin still acted responsibly to protect LP from being vandalized until Goldi's estate is settled. And tpaine should thank his lucky stars that he didn't illegally acquire control of Goldi's property.

You are so insane about this, that you're funny. I made it quite clear from the start of this farce that I did NOT want control of LP, I was willing to pay the bills as long as a membership chosen moderator tried to control the inmates.

Except that is not what happened.

There is a grace period after the name expires (at least 2 weeks) but as you can see it never expired. A whois privacy guard is in place but you can see the date of renewal. Who knows what names lurk behind the privacy shield? "sysadmin" does.

They attempted an illegal transfer of information that wasn't theirs to transfer.

Did they attempt an illegal transfer of information or did they commit a conversion?

Conversion is "[a]n unauthorized assumption and exercise of the right of ownership over goods or personal chattels belonging to another, to the alteration of their condition or the exclusion of the owner's rights. Any unauthorized act which deprives an owner of his property permanently or for an indefinite time. Unauthorized and wrongful exercise of dominion and control over another's personal property." Black's Law Dict., 6th Ed.

Constructive conversion is "[a]n implied or virtual conversion, which takes place where a person does such acts in reference to the goods of another as amount in law to the appropriation of the property to himself." Black's Law Dict., 6th Ed.

Conversion

There is a strong case for this as well. While ownership of LP may have been in dispute in the period between Goldi's actual passing and when the State of Florida would have claim to her property, there can be no dispute that sysadmin and Neil were never owners or had the right to manipulate any of her property and had no right to attempt to sell, barter, or transfer it to anyone else.

It appears the update date/time to the second at the bottom of the page is when whois updated their page. The page does not contain data originating after that time.

It appears the update date (mmddyyy) listed under "important dates" indicated when the domain updated their information.

The first post of mine showed a page update of December 29, 2014 and could not list a most recent domain update of January 6, 2015.

The second post of mine that did show the most recent domain update of January 6, 2015 shows a page update of January 15, 2015, after January 6.

If this is a correct interpretation, the first post shows the most recent domain update of November 17, four days after Goldi's body was discovered, and already indicating a change to Panama.

Maybe I misunderstand the data, but that, and the background of the site origin, make me curious about what happened when. Who updated on November 17 and what did they update?

Just fighting for truth, justice, and the American way.

Remember, sysadmin posted

I've been with LP since Goldi and Neil came up with the idea, helped build the first server, and have worked with it ever since behind the scenes.

That first server was provided by and in the office of John B. Kotmair at 12 Carroll St., Westminster, MD, the address of SAPF and Liberty Post.

Goldi-Lox and Pinguinite were followers of John B. Kotmair and SAPF. It appears sysadmin was another member of the fold.

John B. Kotmair was Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate # 18066-037.

Son Edward L. Kotmair was Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate # 33337-037. That was his second stretch. Earlier he was state Offender Number 0229959 doing time at Hartnett Correctional Institution.

I can see how the people from SAPF can vouch for each other's integrity.

Gee, what was their business?

(1:05-cv-01297-WMN)

Submitted: July 24, 2007
Decided: July 26, 2007

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

John B. Kotmair, Jr., Appellant Pro Se; George E. Harp, Shreveport, Louisiana, for Appellant SAVE-A-PATRIOT FELLOWSHIP, an unincorporated association.

Richard Farber, Carol Ann Barthel, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

John B. Kotmair, Jr., and Save-A-Patriot Fellowship appeal from the district court's orders granting summary judgment in favor of the United States and issuing a permanent injunction against them based on their activities in promoting a tax evasion scheme, and denying their motions for a new trial and for modification of the injunction. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Kotmair, No. 1:05-cv-01297-WMN (D. Md. Nov. 29, 2006; Feb. 7, 2007). We deny Save-A-Patriot's motion to strike portions of the brief filed by the United States, and we dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED

MEMORANDUM OF DECISION

GARBIS, District Judge.

[...]

The SAP Fellowship chose not to maintain any bank accounts or even maintain records of its finances.

[...]

The record establishes that Kotmair was entitled to, felt free to, and did, take funds from the Fellowship and use them for his personal sustenance. Kotmair espouses a doctrine that would have funds that he takes to spend for personal use remain the property of the SAP Fellowship. Indeed, in the world according to Kotmair, if he uses Foundation funds for his food, the Foundation ownership extends to the food even as it proceeds through his digestive system. For example:

THE COURT: [W]e are trying to get an understanding of when something belongs to you and when it doesn't. When it belongs to [the SAP Fellowship], so I just want you to try and help me understand that. If you go to the grocery store and you buy Wheaties [with fellowship funds], when is it yours, after you eat it or. Kotmair: That is a hard question to answer. THE COURT: That is why we ask it. Kotmair: If the energy from it goes to the Fellowship, and it does, I would say it is to the benefit of the fellowship.

The Court declines to follow the "logic" of Kotmair's position or to dwell upon the point in the digestive process at which Kotmair would agree that the I.R.S. could effect collection. Rather, the Court must conclude that once Kotmair takes Fellowship funds for personal use, those funds can no longer be found to be Fellowship property immune from levy for Kotmair's tax liabilities.

The Court finds from the evidence that the SAP Fellowship obtained, and had ownership of, the cash and money orders it received for memberships and the sales of goods, and, possibly services. If the Fellowship had established that Kotmair's possession of particular assets was solely as Fiduciary for the SAP Fellowship the ownership could remain in the Fellowship. However, at such point as Kotmair took the assets and did not place

[962 F.Supp. 701]

them in a location23 that was exclusively used for the maintenance of Fellowship assets, the ability of the SAP Fellowship to establish ownership in this case was lost. In the context of this case, once the cash and money orders were taken from the Office and placed in something other than a Fellowship depository, the funds were available for the immediate personal use of Kotmair, mingled with his own assets, and no longer had the character of Fellowship assets sufficient to avoid levy.

In this case, the cash and money orders that had been removed from the Office prior to the raid were found in the Residence in various locations, none of which have been established to be exclusive association depositories. However, the Court finds that the $384 of cash, the $210 of money orders and $40 of Susan B. Anthony Dollars found at the Office were, when found, property of the SAP Fellowship which had not yet been mingled with Kotmair's personal assets. Accordingly, the Court concludes that the SAP Fellowship has carried its burden of proof and proven ownership with regard to these assets found in the Office, but not as to the cash and money orders found in the Residence.

[...]

Who is that sysadmin mystery man who helped with that first server in the SAPF office in 2002 and has "worked with it ever since behind the scenes."

And who says SysAdmin isn't waiting? He said that may happen, and if it does, then things will go that course. That is, by definition, waiting. I don't understand why you feel like some crime or civil offence has been committed. If Florida wants the domain name and web site as part of Sally's estate, they can come and get it. No problem.

When I asked "wait for what" I really meant "do what while we wait?" I listed a bunch of options, and asked what you would do in sysadmin's place, but you failed to answer.

You have raised a big stink about something no being done right, or something being done wrong, but as far as I can tell, you have failed to state what that is. You simply rehash the same claim about LP belonging to Florida.

You sure are making a mountain out of a molehill. Unless you plan on contacting the authorities in Florida and wasting their time with this foolishness you are beating a dead horse for no other purpose than to hear the thud. To what purpose?

Indeed. I fully and heartily recommend that Nolu do his civic duty and contact the state of Florida and inform them of this grave injustice.

Do it. I'm totally serious.

Chan is correct. Sysadmin and Neil had absolutely no right to offer anything to anyone under the Liberty Post name. They were essentially offering what was not theirs to offer to you and or Pericles. With no will and not being corporate officers, their actions were their own and most likely illegal.

Offering anything is hardly illegal, in of itself. But the fact that it was not turned over to anyone makes the matter moot.

I am 110% certain that one or both asked a lawyer, after they had started their dog and pony show, as to what was legal or not and were told what to do to avoid any legal trouble.

Oh, absolutely. Consulting a big legal firm was definitely worth the time and expense to avoid a raid from DHS over a domain name generates zero income.

They are lucky... so far. A government stooge with a little time on their hands could make their lives miserable for a while as they dig into the mess.

Hey it could still happen........ He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

You would have had a hell of a time explaining that to a government worker bee looking for $$$ from Goldi's estate. You are damn lucky those two dopes figured it out before they got themselves and you or Pericles in some trouble.

Being away from LP as long as I have has given me the distinct benefit of not having to read such nonsense from people that just come up with crap to fulfill a need to hate or despise. You have an agenda, and you jump on any opportunity to ridicule people you don't know.

The decision not to hand off LP was made out of consideration only with regard to what was morally appropriate, as discussed on LP.

Even if LP had been handed off to someone, if Florida came knocking and wanted the domain, then they still get it. You are treating this like it is destruction of property. Insane.

Very interesting. There must have been some kind of reason that the name was updated on 11/17, since it wasn't set to expire until mid Jan. Perhaps there is a registrar or other source that allows a review of all "updated" dates.

What was "updated" on 11/17, and by who, and why?

libertypost.org expired
As your post #218 indicates, it was renewed/updated on 1/06/15. Was .org also "updated" on 11/17? And if so, who and why?

over a domain name generates zero income

That was entirely Goldi's fault. She didn't want advertising, and she didn't or couldn't or wouldn't entertain alternatives that don't plaster ads on the front page. (at least as far as I could make out from her limited responses anytime the subject was brought up)

Libertypost.com is the prize, owned by the USPS. But Liberty post.net is not exactly a throwaway. It could be worth at least a few thousand dollars without a website and developed like it was (even though only 100 or so regular posters) could have been valued at more than that. Take a look at the garbage that is actually selling at https://flippa.com/

Any idea who updated libertypost.org and .net in November? Why would that have happened just a few days after her death?

Since someone here has seen fit to inflate this whole LP issue to the ridiculous level of even including SAPF, I'll say this:

Anyone interested in the case against SAPF can find it voluntarily posted by SAPF on the SAPF web site, http://save-a-patriot.org. Not just the final order, but the entire case from start to finish. The final order required SAPF to post the order itself on the SAPF web site for 1 year. SAPF has gone above and beyond that by posting all docs related to the case for the last 5 years, encouraging all to research it, and will likely have it there as long as the site exists, that done as a protest of the manner in which the court handled the case.

SAPF is made up of principled honest people. The founder, John Kotmair, was a police officer who quit the force after witnessing widespread corruption in trusted offices and on the force. I understand he was convicted some years later of willful failure to file income tax returns and received a 2 year sentence for doing so. He went to jail and returned from it completely defiant, upon his release founding SAPF in an attempt to bring light to injustice.

SAPF has both won and lost cases against the US government in federal court. Most notably winning a case after a highly publicized federal armed raid which seized everything from the fellowship. The government was subsequently ordered by the court in that case to return everything (literally truckloads) taken from the fellowship at it's own expense.

John Kotmair's son, Edward, to the best of my knowledge was never a member of SAPF, and consequently, any actions of his are his alone, and do not reflect on the fellowship.

There are those who consider legislative bodies to be Gods, the laws they enact to be a Holy Bible, and those who administer it to be High Priests. I am not one of those people. Like many things in life, law has it's purpose, but is hardly the final authority in defining moral right and wrong. Rather it's often a tool of abuse, as is easily witnessed when it's applied selectively, not to mention those times when the laws themselves are completely immoral.

Morality trumps laws of man. And there are times when doing the right moral thing means going against what some men have made into law. There are no shortage of examples of this throughout history, the illegality of the American Revolution being only a single but significant example. Those who fail to recognize this lack moral fiber and any moral vision whatsoever.

You may now continue your hyper sensitivity to the outcome of the dispensation of a single, virtually worthless web site while ignoring gross, far-reaching human rights abuses committed daily by the US government and other supposed authorities.

Have a nice day.

I really don't understand why folks are still bickering over a website which has been shut down after it's owner passed away in November! It was very kind, IMHO, for sysadmin to keep it up for as long as he did -- but that was an act of charity, not of obligation.

It is a thread "Title: Be a man, try running Liberty Post" posted in Humor. That does not seem to be a political debate topic to me.

There were pleas for trust in an anonymous person. Words of wisdom were "trust but verify."

I commented on what I observed as unlawful acts. For those who pushed back with legal nonsense or purported moral justification of unlawful actions, or have posted outright falsehoods, I returned fire.

I do not care what sysadmin does or what happens to him. sysadmin can do as he pleases. I can state facts and opine pursuant to those facts.

I do care about scam artists who hurt other people who put their trust in them. The harm caused by the SAPF organization has been well documented. I would not trust any of them without verification.

And who says SysAdmin isn't waiting?

sysadmin made it clear he took actions. Actions he had no authority to take. It does not matter if you consider them right, wrong or moral.

You simply rehash the same claim about LP belonging to Florida.

LP does not belong to the state of Florida. Not yet. Not until she has been declared to have no living relatives. LP and the entirety of Goldi's property belongs to Goldi's estate. It is for the state to determine to whom the property belongs.

Probate. Court procedure by which a will is proved to be valid or invalid; though in current usage this term has been expanded to generally refer to the legal process wherein the estate of a decedent is administered. Generally, the probate process involves collecting a decedent's assets, liquidating liabilities, paying necessary taxes, and distributing property to heirs. These activities are carried out by the executor or administrator of the estate, usually under the supervision of the probate court or other court of appropriate jurisdiction.

Black's Law Dict., 6th Ed.

If Goldi had given someone a copy of the keys to her car before she died so he could use it to run her errands, that would not mean that same someone with the keys could drive it while waiting for the state to find it. It does not mean they could take it home and park it in their garage either.

Nice try. Try your phoney nonsense on someone else. Trust an SAPF crony if one must, but always verify.

The Court wrote that Edward Louis Kotmair was member of a tax protest organization, namely Save a Patriot Fellowship. Following what Pinguinite said, that must mean that his actions are not his alone and do reflect on the fellowship scamming operation.

The Court found, that as he knew his father went to jail for failure to file, that was sufficient to infer that Edward's failure was willful.

USA v Edward Louis Kotmair, USCA 4th Cir 00-4139 (2001), OPINION at 2-3:

Kotmair next challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support his convictions. Kotmair stipulated that he did not file tax returns for 1990, 1991, and 1992, and that his income exceeded the exemption amounts. The only issue before the jury was whether Kotmair's failure to file was willful. See Cheek v. United States, 498 U.S. 192, 201-02 (1991). The trial evidence, viewed in the light most favorable to the government, Glasser v. United States, 315 U.S. 60, 80 (1942), showed that Kotmair had large amounts of income for the years in question, he failed to keep business records, he conducted business largely on a cash basis, he attempted to hide income and assets by requiring payments in amounts less than $10,000, he belonged to a tax protest organization, namely Save a Patriot Fellowship, he was notified by the IRS of his duty to file a return, and his father--founder of Save a Patriot--went to jail for his failure to file. This evidence was sufficient for the jury to infer that Kotmair's failure to file was willful.

Id. at 4:

The final issue Kotmair raises is whether the district court clearly erred in enhancing Kotmair's offense level by two for the use of sophisticated means to impede the discovery of the nature or extent of his offense. "Sophisticated means" includes"conduct that is more complex or demonstrates greater intricacy or planning than a routine tax evasion case." USSG § 2T1.2, comment. (n.2). The district court applied the enhancement after noting that Kotmair engaged in structuring and laundering of his income to prevent the creation of currency transaction reports. Because Kotmair failed to offer any evidence to refute the findings in the presentence report, there was no clear error by the district court in adopting these findings.

RALEIGH - United States Attorney Janice McKenzie Cole announced that EDWARD L. KOTMAIR (http://www.save-a-patriot.org) 41, of Westminster, Maryland, was sentenced in federal court here on Thursday, February 3, 2000, for failure to file federal income tax returns. Chief U. S. District Judge Terrence W. Boyle imposed a sentence of 27 months imprisonment and a supervised release term of one year.

Following a three-day jury trial in September, 1999, KOTMAIR (http://www.save-a-patriot.org) was convicted of failing to file federal income tax returns for the years 1990, 1991, and 1992. During those years, KOTMAIR (http://www.save-a-patriot.org) operated his own carpentry business, Commercial Installers, located in Cary, N. C. His company earned income of approximately 1.7 million dollars during the three-year period. Some of KOTMAIR's income came from the United States Government while he did subcontracting work on the Library of Congress and a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation building in Washington, D. C. KOTMAIR (http://www.save-a-patriot.org) was arrested in September, 1998, and has remained in federal custody since that time.

During his trial, KOTMAIR (http://www.save-a-patriot.org) attempted to convince the jury that he did not believe he was required to pay income taxes. The jury rejected his argument and found him guilty on all three counts of the indictment. KOTMAIR (http://www.save-a-patriot.org) is a member of Save-A-Patriot Fellowship, a tax protest organization located in Westminster, Maryland. The group, which was founded by KOTMAIR's father, John B. Kotmair, states that U. S. citizens living and working in the United States are not required to pay income taxes. The elder Kotmair was convicted of failure to file federal income tax returns in the early 1980's and served a prison term. Other members of Save-A-Patriot Fellowship (http://www.save-a-patriot.org), including close associates of KOTMAIR (http://www.save-a-patriot.org), also have been convicted of income tax charges and sentenced to prison.

According to U. S. Attorney Cole, federal courts and juries have consistently rejected the arguments of "tax protest" organizations, including the Save-A-Patriot Fellowship (http://www.save-a-patriot.org), and have upheld the income tax laws and their applicability to everyone.

Those who fail to recognize this lack moral fiber and any moral vision whatsoever.

The SAPF morality, and yours, is to state you have no legal obligation to pay income taxes. Indeed, SAPF members would sell that crap, frequently very expensive crap for the deceived buyer who relied on it. That hardly requires the moral fiber of the founders, nor does it equate to the American Revolution.

You may now continue your hyper sensitivity to the outcome of the dispensation of a single, virtually worthless web site while ignoring gross, far-reaching human rights abuses committed daily by the US government and other supposed authorities.

The government was subsequently ordered by the court in that case to return everything (literally truckloads) taken from the fellowship at it's own expense.

Your mythical, supposed grand victory would be the court decision I quote from at #223 to which you are responding. A check for $634 plus interest does not make a truckload of anything. Perhaps it adds up to another SAPF pantsload.

This is the Court finding of what the Court returned to SAPF, the complete list.

the Court finds that the $384 of cash, the $210 of money orders and $40 of Susan B. Anthony Dollars found at the Office were, when found, property of the SAP Fellowship which had not yet been mingled with Kotmair's personal assets.

Items seized included $44,115 of U.S. currency and various numismatic coins. Uncle Sam kept those.

SAPF declares victory.
