We don't even know if you _have_ a page. You still won't tell us the
URL.

As someone who is clearly more interested in arguing than in fixing it,
then you go in the troll bucket.

Excellent. We now have two great analogies -- each make their own point
very clearly. A URL would enable the rest of us to decide which is closer
to the situation you report.

Joking apart - as I suspect you're aware, I've participated in usenet
for many years now, and I've always tried to leave the record straight
on any issues where I've been mistaken on factual grounds.

Opinions, of course, are a different matter. I've got plenty of those
too.
