OK, now we all know I was the first to break the story, before anyone. After I did, it created quite a shitstorm. I offered to tone it down, so that I wouldn't steal people's thunder.

So those people at 4 PM yesterday got the real scoop, and GFY got clobbered by people rushing to see the news, as many here know.

After I toned it down to calm things, people felt I was jerking them around by changing it to a 'prediction'. I was trying to tell people that they could rely on what was first posted, but some people cannot take a hint (right Lenny and Tony?).

Anyway, the point is that I was not full of shit. It's almost exactly what I originally posted here: http://www.gfy.com/fucking-around-and-business-discussion/483903-breaking-news-2257-postponed-enforcement-inspections-2-3-months-post7619472.html#post7619472
