Hi Megan,

If someone wants to donate the harvestable platinum from an asteroid, would you please make sure that an appropriately progressive excise tax is paid to the ufohastings.com concerns? Thanks muchly. On Dec 11, 2013 8:03 PM, wikimedia-l-request@lists.wikimedia.org wrote:

I demand that the Wikimedia Foundation start accepting the following:

Litecoin Namecoin PPCoin Feathercoin Craftcoin Quarkcoin Freicoin Devcoin Terracoin BBQCoin Netcoin

Actually, scrap that, I've got an even better Ponzi scheme - sorry, cryptocurrency: TomCoin.

And, best of all, if you start taking TomCoins I'll be happy to give you a million of them. No, wait, how about a billion?

It's *completely* wrong to call these things Ponzi schemes.

*Technically*, they're pump-and-dumps.
