How I Got On This

I declared the Kent Hovind story or L'affaire Kent Hovind done as far as my forbes.com coverage was concerned in August 2015 when his co-defendant Paul Hansen received a below guideline sentence for contempt of court. I have kept up with the story on my alternate tax blog, which has lower standards and no rational editorial supervision at all. That has kept me in touch with Ernie Land, Kent's consigliere, as Kent rebooted his ministry with speaking, a youtube channel and the prospects of a bigger better Dinosaur Adventureland in Lenox, Alabama.

I would never have imagined that my Kent Hovind coverage would cross over with my coverage of virtual currencies, but Ernie Land and Dibcoin have made it happen. I found the combination irresistible. Ernie's response to my skepticism is that people were skeptical about Bitcoin and look how that has done. As it happens it I remain skeptical of Bitcoin, but have to admit that its attractiveness to techno nerds of a libertarian bent will give it staying power. I'm not buying any bitcoins, but I'm also not trying to figure out how to short them. If Dibcoin catches on, as it may, with young earth creationists, it might really take off. You be the judge.



I guess as they say... "There's no bad press"!
