I'm in the same boat, only I stopped getting the offers sometime this summer. I assumed that I took advantage of them too vigorously when I first...
I thought that the widget here was based on the same info sources, and would stay reasonably up-to-date in its tracking. I'm not sure it's updated...
And, for what it's worth, the "spot price" indicator visible from this forum is stuck at the prices from several days ago. If anybody knows anyone...
The catch is that you can't tell a "dip" (a drop followed by a rise) from "just another part of a long downward tumble", except in hindsight. I...
:facepalm:
Don't despair -- anybody can see other examples of these at the Smithsonian. :) If I find time in the next couple of days, I'll post the pictures...

The "report auction" button is still there on closed auctions -- you just have to click through to "view original auction". However, I've started...
Now, now, nobody was talking about coin doctoring, er, "cosmetic surgery"... ;)
Wow. Was my point that unclear? Some people like a pristine, carefully cultivated appearance. Some people like an appearance that demonstrates...
I'm in the same boat. Like @medoraman, I'm the analytic type. I've got pretty good technical chops at this point for photography. I can set up my...
I came to say what @drathbun posted. The shallow depth-of-field is really hard to avoid in macrophotography. The only ways I know of to avoid it:...
Not everybody likes men in thousand-dollar suits or women buried in mascara and fake eyelashes. Similarly, not everybody likes gaudily toned or...
Which digit? I mean, I have a digit in mind, one that always comes to my mind when I see a thread like this, but it's not one that's displayed on...
Separate names with a comma.
