May I add that a lot of NANOG people actually use IRC for many reasons. You would be suprised to learn how many of the people posting to NANOG chat on a daily basis in a certain #nanog channel. Would you be pissed to know that I'm an IRCer and I also own NANOG.NET ?
ohh and also, #nanog has members of "tier-1" peers on there. He's just asking a simple question and I think it would be interesting to know his answer. If our countries (I'm canadian) are so free, I should and we should all be allowed to say whatever we want, whenever we want which includes that blaxthos guy. the nanog-l is not WILLIAM LEIBZON's personnal hatered list. If he wants people to read on his stuff, he can just start his own list. -chris On Wed, 10 Dec 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > bash.org... bash.org... now where have I seen that... AAH YES!
