  • Why do some people get away with blatant multiple account abuse on Yahoo! Answers?

    Hi all,

    I noticed this one guy abusing answers to no end. His name is Alberto Lahti, he creates multiple accounts for best answers.

    Now, he's blocked answer viewing to others on his own account:

    http://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=AvbZmVgUM...

    However, he completely neglects to do this with his fakes.

    -Karin M. 5 questions. All are best answers for Lahti. Most answered with "MERCI!". Member since November 15th.

    http://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=Aphd.9JEo...

    -Mike. 6 Questions. All are best answers for Lahti. Member since November 14th.

    http://in.answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=Aphd.9...

    -"Google". 6 questions. All but 1 are best answers for Lahti.

    I tried filing abuse reports for each question, but how do I email the Answers team about the abusing account

  • New drivers (permit); what can save money on insurance?

    Okay, new drivers in the family (got the permit today). Of course, DMV rats you out to Allstate, and Allstate charges a ton for insurance (Arm + Leg). Oh, two new drivers. So I'm looking for ways to show good character to Allstate or find a cheaper insurance.

    Now, I know some basic things about Auto Insurance:

    A) Good grades (above 3.0 gpa) can get a discount from some insurers (usually 10%). Have this.

    B) I drive a moderate car (not SUV or sedan). Good condition.

    C) The car will be shared between 2-3 young drivers. Since they can't all be in the car at once, I imagine this could reduce costs.

    D) No criminal record and no disciplinary file at school.

    E) In the Fall, Drivers Ed is offered. I understand that it also can reduce costs

    F) Parents are responsible drivers (low insurance)

    Who tends to be cheapest with Auto Insurance? Am I wrong in any of the above statements, and is there any other factors that can save money? Where is the best place to get a quote?

    Thank you!

  • Lost a Nextel phone with GPS. Is it possible to track?

    Phone is ringing but no one answers.

    1) No, I do not pay for GPS regularly, but it is enabled on my phone.

    2) I have the SIM card number. IEMI is not with me.

    3) Yes, I have a MyNextel account associated with my bill.

    4) No, I do not have Direct Protect lost phone insurance. It has to be added BEFORE the phone is lost.

    Is there any way to track it for free? Will Nextel support help me out here?

    Thanks!

  • Dutch Ovens & Serious Food Allergies: Cleaning/Reseasoning?

    Hey, I was wondering if anyone can help me out.

    I have a very serious allergy to eggs. And I go on a lot of campouts. My group planned to make pizza in a dutch oven (they have a recipe). While the recipe does not call for eggs, stuff with eggs HAS been cooked in the dutch oven before. And with my allergies, any pots, pans, silverware, etc. has to be washed.

    My question is this: We have a dutch oven (cast iron, I believe) that is seasoned but needs to be washed. VERY thouroughly. How do I do this? How do I reseason?

    Thanks!
