Well, I am ignoring the insulting tone, I am not prevaricating anything.

This is the exact same exchange as in a parallel thread, I am therefore copy
and pasting this from the other thread.

What is the point of you asking me to confirm? So you can re-ask me to re-confirm?

Well, it is time to stop blaming your ISP for this kind of repetition. It is
time to start recognizing your own internal problem. Will you be able to write
unbiased annals? I have my doubts.

This is not true. If it were, then every maker of an ascii pic will have to
prove his/her ownership before putting his/her initials on it.

True is, that makers of ascii pics simply put their initials on them, and let
others dispute ownership.

You know this to be the truth deep in your heart, Colin, but you wrote
something else. Again, I have my doubts that you will be able to write
truthful annals.

>Not necessary Pete!

I still want to go ahead with this call for evidence, if not for you, then for
everyone else here on aaa. Anyone should speak up now if they want to dispute
my claim of ownership.
