There's an office complex near my home that has a sign in front of it:
"If you officed here, you'd be home now." Besides making up the verb
"office" from the noun "office," the sign makes no sense.

I very much appreciate that the point was brought up, as I strive to speak
(Am)English correctly, even as Usenet is a "casual" ad hoc medium.

The folks like Cybe(r) Wizard and Dan Purgert, et al., have found that I
thank them, and appreciate when my English is corrected, when done so with
a helpful intent.

In the case of Rene Lamontagne, it's not lost on anyone that his
contribution (as has been that of Dan Purgert) to this thread has been
negative value added, hence, Rene was, likely ecstatic that he _thought_ he
found an "error" in my facts, much like Snit used to revel in his
accusations that my facts are wrong.

HINT: Watch this hilarious Snit video on the YouTube web site about me.

DOUBLEHINT: Snit posted that cite to that site hundreds of times.
TRIPLEHINT: He _thought_ he _finally_ found my facts wrong.
QUADRUPLEHINT: He was so _sure_ of himself, just like Mike Easter was.

And yet, Snit never even _once_ comprehended the Y axis.

Notice, the similarity to what Mike Easter and Carlos and Frank Slootweg
(who was part of that Snit drama, by the way, despite the fact Frank tries
to distance himself from his idiocy every time I mention it), are doing
here.

All Snit saw ... was a pretty graph.
The graph was moving.
Hooray!

Just like a mouse sees a laser pointer moving...
o The mouse POUNCES on it.

Just like Mike did, when he saw the keyword "VPN".
o Snit is a keyword troll, and so is Mike Easter a keyword troll.

The moment they see a "moving graph", that's it.
o Their brain goes into cat-pouncing-on-laser mode.

It's like an alcoholic's response to being offered a drink.
o They can't resist being a keyword troll.

They think it's me confused, but all I did was ask this simple question:
Q: Does a free proxy even exist to post using free nntp news servers?
A: Name just one.
