7. Sanitized parts?

Some have wondered if wireless chips are in Diebold motherboards. Perhaps sanitized motherboards are being sold to convince us they're not there.

Just a thought.

10. "no longer available"

the seller must have gotten some flack (hopefully) and took it off.

11. Dobbs show said eBay said they were going to review their policy.

Looks like they did it in a hurry.

12. too bad---lou sounded like he wanted to bid on it himself but

since he ran the story and called ebay about it i guess he won't get the chance. i think they've taken all their evoting machines down (however many they had to begin with--i don't know)
