Lol, we should have paid attention to the signs, ↓ 
How can you compare KnC with Avalon or even BFL?
?? Seriously ?No need they did it for me, lol
Like the old saying goes a picture says a thousand words
I blame it on Snowden. He sensitized the establishment such that now it overreacts. Let's say a govt agency known for snooping asks _that_ miner manufacturing company (won't be named) to let the agency copy all emails and orders from customers because of a potential terrorist threat, the use of BTC to finance terrorism. They agree and feel now they can rest assured they'll be smiled upon in any lawsuit because behind the scenes it will be known they help the good guys. Not good as their ethics are questionable. They see competition (KnC) is going to kicktheirass. Meeting at a European Bitcoin Conference, a spokesman for _that_ miner manufacturing company, gets the ear of KnC reps and hints what they're doing. Since Sweden works agreeably with that US agency on many matters, KnC takes it as a hint they should follow suit to assist the good guys. But, delays have nothing to do with helping the good guys. Delays are the stock in trade of _that_ questionable US miner manufacturing company and leads KnC people astray. The motive is greed and to cause an impediment to KnC success.
There's a brown to the lower dirt there. From NY, the dirt on LI, except at the shore or out east, was a deep rich dark soil loaded with earthworms. Early in this planet's history there was a collision with another, smaller, planet and the moon was formed. I'm convinced the dirt down here in the south is from that alien planet. It's red as Mars, lies dense as red brick, and has a thin layer of top soil completely unlike anything on LI. This has to be alien what I'm living on. What's up north is the real earth.
Sounds like SR closure didnt prevent you from scoring...
