Funny how its only off topic when its about your abuse.

Ah, yes. Thats why its called the Spam and Open Relay Blacklist System.

But I will grant them that they didn't start scanning until March, 2005.

Well, since you are the "twaddle spewer", claiming all of our netblocks
hijacked in a bald lie, I guess we know what your hope is.  But I suppose
you mean to deny having ever threatened mailbombs, above. It is
interesting that you don't actually deny it, you just imply I'm not
telling the truth.

Well, your messages to XO abuse are at http://www.iadl.org under the SORBS
listing.  People can see for themselves what sort of abuser you are.

And since you've been booted for abuse, anyone calling you an abuser is
not a personal attack, any more than calling Alan Brown a court-proven
liar is a personal attack.  That's a fact that people ought to be aware 
of.
