Honestly, I have not seen any of this until now. I probably left
the some thread before someone said something about this.

If you'd like to provide a news account which posts my IP
address, I'd take it. I have a few friends who would take it as
well. We are probably 6 total. If 6 is too much, we'll take as
many as you can provide.

There you have my complete name and e-mail address for extra
credit. However, I don't find anything special about someone's
lastname and I am failing to see a reason for that, other than
the fact you like it this way.

I think this is nonsense. My interpretation of your idea here is
that you think that people who help others on USENET and don't
complain about missing lastnames on NNTP headers don't have any
principles.

I think you're wrong. I also wonder how powerful you are for
being capable of knowing people's principles (and lack thereof)
across the world.

Thank you. If you want to continue this discussion, I suggest you
do so by e-mail, since now you know my e-mail address and my
lastname. I'm not in favor of these talks on comp.* groups.
