The article I'm responding to, marked <7013@ficc.uu.net>, is a forgery. Sorry about that. I guess someone out there is taking things just a teensy bit more seriously than me. Thanks for all your input, folks. But since Ferranti gets mail from uunet, it's all getting a mite expensive. In response to the most common suggestion: my wife and I met on a BBS system, and we have two phone lines and two modems already. She doesn't call Usenet: she did call a few times about a year ago but didn't care for the flaming in rec.arts.startrek. She's more into local bulletin boards, where you know the people and they don't get all huffy when you ask them not to use scatological language. -- Peter "Have you hugged your wolf today" da Silva <peter@sugar.hackercorp.com> `-_-' 'U` "I am the ghost of aquariums past" -- Robotman.

Russ Kepler kindly provided a trace- back to where the article most likely originated. A number of others have sent me copies of this article or CC:'s of mail they've sent to Eric. Thanks all. Needless to say, the sentiments expressed in that posting are far from mine. That's what makes it so funny, I guess. My positions on most political subjects are well-known by this network. I'd have thought the forger would have been more creative in order to make it appear plausable. I have sent email to Eric requesting an appology. We'll see if he's as quick with that as he was the flame. To the forger: I'm truely honored by your efforts. By hiding under a Ku Klux Klan-like hood of anonymity, you have demonstrated your likeness to the skinheads. You've proven that you lack the education, diction, creativity, or common sense to join in a rational debate. You lack the ability to counter in a public forum my logic and facts. So you hide in the bushes and figuratively try to fire a sniper shot. As with most idiots, you forgot to load your gun. I have a pretty good idea who you are. With this posting, you simply confirm my previously stated opinion of you. To the rest of the net: Let's let this issue die right here, lest we give this creep the attention he craves.
