ah umm.. I'm not overly offended - it was more of a startle. I've gotten 
used to USENET, somewhat - nature of the beast.

Apparently 33 bits of information are enough to identify you. I don't 
bother about the NSA, but plenty of shady scummy types around, so I tend 
to spread misinformation which *would* make me a big time liar. It's not 
a besetting sin.

Here's a link to my Youtube thingy:

Really, if someone's feeling racist, hire someone of your own kind 
(whatever that is) to kick you and make you study - that way, you are 
more in control of your destiny. There's plenty of energy the sun kick 
out that just goes to waste. (Not the easiest thing to do - finding 
someone reliable enough to zap the toes, anyway..) It's rather 
unreasonable for humans to expect the Universe to spin around them 
indefinitely..
