I can go next door to borrow a coin to flip, or just guess. Do you have a preference?

After such a warm welcome, probably not. Even if he works out how to post pics.

A good point, Adam - TRF is a tough place to break-in with “is it fake?” questions.

Despite good governance here, a certain degree of keyboard humor (at the expense of the hapless) can border on callousness.

Online crowd behavior is heavily influenced by the loss of personal responsibility of the individual. As a result, TRF’s goal of friendly behavior tends to decrease with crowd size.
