#4 Frank, gromky was right to point out the missing link. We usually stop those in the hopper. My apologies, and thank you, gromky.

Thank you also, Frank, for stepping up to find the link for us, and in the middle of the night, too. You're a mensch.

Skidmark, please check Frank's link to make it's the one you intended, and in future double check to make sure you pasted the actual URL in the box. In general we delete linkless or improperly linked articles in the hopper.

#5 What the hell? Where'd that come from?

Look, I think it's not too much to ask that every story have a valid URL associated with it. This one obviously had the "body text" pasted into the "URL" field by mistake. IMO the bit of code that accepts submissions should detect properly formatted URLs, libraries are available to do this with a single line of code. If the code doesn't do this, then the human should do it. If the human doesn't do this, then I volunteer to spend my time doing it.

Down in Texas, we say "squeaky wheel gets the grease."

#7 The bags turned out to be full of explosives and detonated when an armored car full of cash showed up. The armored car was not punctured and kept going, the postings said.

IMO, non-WOT (simple commercial enterprise)
