The Dread Deadbeat Pirate Kimberlin has continually tried to promote himself as an important mover and shaker. As the TKPOTD from five years ago today notes, he tries to puff himself up by bragging about how many petitions he’s circulated. He never talks about how many of them have resulted in any Real World change.

The Gentle Reader who has been following The Saga of The Dread Pirate Kimberlin for awhile may remember that one his claims to fame, at least in the puff pieces he publishes, is that he gets lots and lots of signatures on petitions. One of his latest calls for the cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline. He says that he’s looking for 100,000 signatures.
I wrote about his progress on 26 May. Here’s how he was doing.
Here’s how he was doing yesterday at 6:30 pm ET.
That’s 15 signatures in 5 weeks. At that rate, he should have all his signatures around the middle of AD 2646.
