The BBE article.  It gives me an error.  Even after getting rid of the word "List" at the end.  I even tried Googling the title, and it still gave me an error. :(

Fixed. It's an ad-supported page with a redirect, so make sure both AdBlock Plus and NoScript are letting it through.

Oops. Little botch at the very end. You said we would talk about the 2012 idiot of the year instead of 2013.

Hopefully no one else notices that.

Thanks!

Something interesting I saw.  He said Bitcoins aren't backed up by gold.  Damn.  He actually gave an indirect nod to the gold standard, thereby making the article unusually tame in that regard. XD
