Wrong and wrong; there are definitely clues at the helm, and it
sure appears to be a user from offered evidence. As a matter of
fact the OWNER and OPERATOR of the site said as much in mail that

Repeated assertions of beliefs does not transmogrify them into
facts. People who insist on making nanog [or some other public
