Nevermind the dubious authenticity... I'm staying far away from that

Yeah, and it seems a good bit, if not all, of the electronics were
long-removed. So it's an expensive polished sphere.
Oh well, my wife would succumb to spontaneous combustion if UPS dropped
Sputnik on the porch, anyway. Patrick :-)

Rumor has it that Patrick Rigney may have mentioned these words:
Yeah, and it seems a good bit, if not all, of the
electronics were
long-removed. So it's an expensive polished sphere.
Which, at least to me, is pointless... :-/
Oh well, my wife would succumb to spontaneous
combustion if UPS dropped
Sputnik on the porch, anyway. Patrick :-)
As long as her life insurance covered that particular form of demise, I'd
think you'd be bidding that rascal up!!! ;-)
*My wife* would just whack me in the head with it; so for that, I'd rather
she used a much less expensive 2x4...
Oh well,
Roger "Merch" Merchberger

I'm sure I could outfit a nice machine shop and hire some Russians
to *make* me a replica for a lot less than the current bid price. :-)

If I had $25K to blow and I dropped it on _that_ instead of something
interesting, like an Antarctic Total Eclipse Cruise (23-Nov-2003),
I'd be in similar straits.

The current bid is $500,700 (way above the buy-it-now price it
originally had), so your bid of 25K is far short of the goal.
But it still has about 24 hours to go, so get your bid in now.
Or maybe you could bid on that Univac (one vacuum?) instead.
It comes with a trailer.

Holy Sh*t, Batman! It was $25K the last time I looked (4 bids or
so).
That is beyond absurd.

Riiiight.

I don't think any of those bidders actually intend on paying. 8-)
