Frankly, I could care less how you determine my credence.

Sorry, my server is on the FRITZ, and has been for some time now.

Yet, you don't find a thread titled "STUDENTS GO AWAY" offensive 
or insultive at all? Well, to each his own I guess.

And you don't think this was an attempt at an insult by any means, 
either correct?  "Do as I say not as I do," seems to come to mind 
here. I'd love to make you think you accomplished something here, 
but the truth is I read news.newusers over 4 years ago. Don't worry 
though because I, unlike you, won't judge you on your attempt 
at an insult.
