Knocked that one out of the park.

 

Sure it is! It even has a Latin phrase for it - “mens rea”. At least jurisprudence DID require it before we warped our criminal codes with political red meat for the masses. We largely don’t do “justice” any more, instead having de facto Departments of Societal Ourage and Retribution.

 

Look up accomplice liability laws laws as one example, you should know this.

Here's what I corrected that you said "If I lose control of my car, and accidentally kill the occupant, I will not face charges. Even if the accident occurs because I'm reckless, it's still not murder."

That is completely false. I don't feel like writing a dissertation about the rest of everything here or citing countless case laws and examples where saying "But I didn't mean too" didn't matter one bit.

If you guys wanna believe that by all means go ahead or keep backtracking. I corrected an incorrect statement that was all

 

I should have known that if there was a market for them there would be Counterfeiting .

 

Our trend as a society is as you say, much to my chagrin. We (and I did have a frontrow seat for a lot of it) have been relentlessly criminalizing what should be civil torts for decades now. That doesn’t make it a sound idea, or compatible with our legal traditions. It’s called kowtowing to prosecutors.

 

A whole bunch of truth in life, PARTICULARLY in macroeconomics, is COMPLETELY counterintuitive.

 

The equipment setup is a pain and expensive, as Doug said. The “fixed costs” are significant, in terms of money and disruption in a loft apartment. But once it is done, the variable costs are negligible, kind of like a meth lab. Oddly enough, methylamine, a meth precursor chemical, will also tone the crap out of coins. It used to be completely legal, but no longer in my state. But then we had more cold remedies available before too.

I used to have a concrete out-building in a very secluded area. For toning experiments.

 

Hey, great idea! From now on, I suggest we rename AI as NMAI. Not market acceptable intelligence. Whatcha thank? Huh? Huh?

 

Here you go gentleman.......

A scientific demonstration that explains the chemistry of toning coins in seconds;



Another on removing toning;

 

Nope, just more dodgeball by our resident smoke blower. If you can do what you claim, one submission to PCGS would more than cover your costs.

Stop making excuses and PROVE IT!

 

Those aren’t market acceptable.

 

jeez, you have no imagination.

 

So you accused me of being a coin doctor but you had a secluded concrete building in which you artificially toned coins.

 

Yes I have, cheap nothing coins. To learn whether I should trust the toner market. And I have concluded I should not. You see, in addition to reading, when I had the appropriate space, I did my own research.

 

Anodizing does not produce market acceptable toning, period!

You guys act like this is the first time this topic has ever been discussed.

 

Were your toners market acceptable or did you simply conclude that with enough practice that you could eventually reach market acceptability?

Can we see some of your results?
