This article mentions a former member of Congress that ripped off a whole bunch of people for 'millions' on fraudulent ventures including a "coin trading company". Anyone know about that? http://www.abcnews.go.com/wire/US/ap20030109_1175.html __________________ Your Friendly Host Take a moment to answer an unanswered question!   01-10-2003, 02:41 PM   #2 (permalink) looric Junior Member   Join Date: Oct 2002 Posts: 16 My only comment is that we had to wait 6 paragraphs before it was mentioned he was a Democrat. If it were otherwise it would have been the second word... "Former Republican Congressman..." As far as his wife, she sure took the hit for this creep.
