It is greater than god, yet
more evil than the devil.
The rich need it and the poor have it.

I've also got this, although I'm positive I have heard it before (it took a good few hours to recall) so I don't feel too proud. I can't be arsed to PM you though. That's actually a little bit of a clue to anyone still musing....

Re: Riddle
Kirk, at this point, I just want Jeff Stelling to say yes and get it over with. I can't handle the suspense any longer!
