The top of the Empire State Building flexes back and forth a few feet
in heavy winds. The building was designed so that dirigibles could
moor at the top. An airplane once flew into the 78th floor. The
building was not seriously damaged, although the plane was. - from

Jeff Napier,

We all know this, this is OLD news. Maybe you should change your site to
OLD-info.com? It's the least you could do if you're going to use this
newsgroup to try to drum up traffic at your site. (I'd hate to see your site
shut down for spamming AGAIN - remember bigbreakthrough.info???)

HTH,

Michael (LS)

That means if you throw it instead of just dropping it, the penny will come
out at some point in the future, with interest. Still, it would be worth
more to just melt it and sell the copper.
