    Seems like these posts about corruption and the big pending indictments and the cabal and such could all be in one thread.

    We all read the news, we don't need you going out and finding news stories, and posting them over and over again in the forum. It's old, it's not necessary, and it's not your job to be re-posting all this garbage. It's one thing if you want to discuss these things in a reasonable manor as this is "off topic DISCUSSIONS" but it's something entirely different when you are just posting garbage and then NOT discussing anything. I don't believe the intent of this site was to accumulate and aggregate news stories. So please, either start seriously discussing the things you post, or stop posting garbage.

    At the heart of science is an essential balance between two seemingly contradictory attitudes--an openness to new ideas, no matter how bizarre or counterintuitive they may be, and the most ruthless skeptical scrutiny of all ideas, old and new. This is how deep truths are winnowed from deep nonsense. -- Carl Sagan

    It's intended that those who care to read do their own research.

    And your wrong about this being old news, 400 sealed indictments is a first in American history.

    You've got five plus threads on the same topic posted within a couple of days. Posted separate they're complete nonsense. Posted together....they're little better but at least it wouldn't take up so much space. That you're posting empty memes about whatever this big conspiracy is without discussing them shows you don't really take it seriously either.

    There are no catalytic converter refineries in New York City.

    Your right there are not cat refinery's in New York, I got taken in a masquerade a site posing under false pretenses. Was an expensive lesson that Davin Gordon taught me.

    I had an independent ICP assay done by American Analytical Services, Inc. | Metallurgical, Environmental, and Chemical Testing Laboratory in Osburn, Idaho before shipping the material was valued at $35.00 a pound.

    That 585 pounds had a value of $20,475.00 US, my pay out total from Legacy $6,000.00 shy of $14,475.00.

    For this reason decided to learn how to extract the precious metals wash coat, which actually turned out to be relatively easy.

    Refining the concentrates does require some skill but I'm confident that I can accomplish this by following instructions from both the Hoke's and Ammen's books on refining precious metal's.

    Much has been published on the gold forum in regards to platinum group metals as well.

    Legacy? Never heard of them. All talk, fancy website. It states they will TAKE (your escrap) and not pay for it. Screams red flags.

    EFFICIENTLY recovering Platinum, Platinum, and Rhodium is a complicated, dangerous, and expensive. To get the metals pure enough to re-sell is basically impossible for anyone.

    But if it’s your own material and you want to try something, it’s free will. Go for it. Just stop trying to refine those old diesels in your pictures.
