The biggest problem governments will have with bitcoin is the anonymity involved in transactions. They will point to money laundering and criminals using it as an untraceable medium of wealth as the reason to shut it down. Without that they won't have leg to stand on in a court of law. You'd think there aren't any real money laundering operations to warrant gov scrutiny.
People should pay taxes on bitcoins. It's probably the only thing that can prevent a complete shutdown.
I suppose it's not real paying transactions on btc means all governmental transactions become transparent they won't do this

I guess you mean Insert Quote. I am a good example of why the newbie forum exists. when I hit the insert quote button all I get is quote /quote,
but if I click insert quote on the topic summary i get "quote author=Maged link=topic=177633.msg1849972#msg1849972 date=1366080408...."
is that the typical way people get the quote attributes?
just click the related button inside message form toolbar
