Actually, I didn't write that. Just another forgery from "Toto" (I am
presuming, from past admissions and from the "wombat.sk.sympatico.ca"
origins).

Here are some of the relevant headers. Note also the Organization field.

This is getting tiresome. It may be time to just head up to Ottawa, or
wherever, look this guy up, and do something about him. His overly long
drunken rants are one thing, and are easily deleted, but impersonating me
is straight out of Detweiler's book. Must be something about Cypherpunks
that brings out this urge to impersonate.
