Then on August 6, they announced "Yes, we are aware that July 15 has come and gone, and yet here you are, still posting on the same old Greedy boards. So what gives? The new Greedy Associates boards are still coming. Perhaps inevitably, we've been rethinking and tweaking a few things, but we are still committed to giving Greedy Associates a new home on a new and much-improved platform . . .."

Still no new boards, or else somebody forgot (!?) to tell the IP folks, and what activity there was has significantly declined since these announcements. So the fat lady is warming up in the wings in anticipation of FindLaw pulling the plug on the resources to keep the "Greedy Boards" up and running. Pure speculation, of course.

c'est la vie.
