No it is not, asshole! That is the old way of doing things.

No, it is capitalized, because Grubor tells you.
The name is the GruBoursyNet.

Look Tim, you ain't even on the IFC or the F-K lists, so
what the fuck do you care anyway? Just go publish this shit
on UseNet, like Mr. Boursy says you should do, and stop
bothering our mailing lists.
