I have said nor believed that the US own the NG. Wally, most postings
from you contain lies.

Clearly the US contingent is the biggest

QED, or as you would say Ergo. Getting lots of interesting hits by
inserting ergo into Google.

Sounds a bit too much like a competition over who gets to take the biggest
bite out of the "Soggy SAO."

WTF is this doing in aus.motorcycles anyway? There're bugger all Septics 'n'
diddly squat Poms in here, with the exception of the bad smells Gerry
brought in with him (mate, you really should learn to wash after frolicking
in the muck!), but most of those've been killfiled long ago - despite their
best efforts to come in with a new account every second day.

They're hoping their invasion will cause an uprising resulting in my
ostracisation Forgive them for they are quite insane.

My apologies to the group.

They must be insane. How could they possibly think they could outdo the
grand job you've been doing for years of ostracizing yourself.

WTF77, please look up the difference between "quite" and "quiet". And
please be quiet until you can be quite certain about which is which.
