Sorry, nothing to do with me. Although using Eternal September is a good idea for a variety of reasons.

I should point out at this juncture that there are lots and lots of people who hate Guy Chapman (with good reason), and not just on Usenet. Here, for example, we have a whole forum on a site called Wikipedia Review which is solely dedicated to how unreasonable Chapman continually is on Wikipedia:

http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?showforum=44

Then of course there's this (note the "usenet asshole" bit):

http://encyclopediadramatica.ch/JzG

One of the editors of that page, "ParalelUni", has said things about Chapman that even I would shy away from. And there are many other places where people express their great dislike of Chapman. But regardless, the idea that one can ascertain that the post is anyone in particular simply from the content and the headers is absurd. Chapman simply has too many long-term, bitter enemies, to a far greater extent than anyone else here.

(I know that Chapman the Helmet-Wearer will see this post, because he must be lying about having me "killfiled". After all, he has been crowing about having complained to my ISP, and how would he know what to complain about unless he'd read my posts?  As frequently stated, for someone who is so often economical with the truth, he's not very good at it!)
