It seems our friend in France is without his internet connection. According
to his blog, he lost his internet connection, spent three days pay on a new
reouter, and shortly thereafter lost his email and web server.
I honestly hope it's a denial of service attack directed at him. That would
be justice.

I saw that the other day as well. You may be right but the r.a.p/
r.a.s groups simply aren't as much fun to watch from the sidelines
without him.

He might try paying his bill- or getting a job, or a life.

Aw c'mon.
Couldn't happen to a more worthy cause.
And WTF would he need a router ?
Or a server ?
The unemployed getting 'paid' ?
Does this mean the Dole, the Unemployment Benefit or the Gyro are
employment possibilities

Heh. And who would that be... other than those reading his blog and
talking about his absence here... blowing ironymeters all around the
planet to smithereens...?

I don't understand people with your attitude about him and his crap. I hope
he never returns, and the groups can build back to close to what they once
were. We don't need the kind of people that he attracts, or the
entertainment value.
Shoot, if you enjoy the pain of having him around, how about slamming your
finger in a car door once per day.
You can see the pain, and it won't hurt anyone else.
Better yet, e-mail him in person, and be entertained to your hearts content.

"I finally connected with someone who sounded like a real technician at
France Télécom, during banking hours, and after making it clear to him
that I was not a standard dolt and that we could skip all the cookbook
questions (“Is the PC plugged in?” “Do you see the Web page in front of
you?” and so on), we spent considerable time discussing the problem and
my test results. He managed to convince me that it might be the router
on my side, even though this didn't seem entirely congruent with the
symptoms I had seen."
Can you imagine the hell that tech went through, having to argue with a
nonstandard dolt?

He taught the SOB a lesson though.
"Tech: Ummm.... it looks lie your router's gone TU. Go buy another one".
"MX: Nope. My router is fine"
"Tech: Oh, did it start working again?"
"MX: NO - IT'S NOT WORKING!"
"Tech: Then it sounds like you need a new one"
Three days pay for a router and some cables. Damn! I wouldn't spend $1000
for that junk. I can get one at Circuit City for 2 hours pay.

Or as the basis of a stand up routine, it could be as good as the
