Hi Bertie;
I'm not an expert on these things but check the message path for both
Mxemanic and this new guy posting on the lift thread and see what you
come up with.
Pardon the intrusion, but if you refer to the posts by Le Chaud Lapin
then I doubt they are the same person. Lapin uses Google Groups (at
least the posts I spot checked) and Google always adds an
"NNTP-Posting-Host". The IP address of Lapin's posts indicate they
appear to originate from somewhere around Austin Texas.
To get an idea of the accuracy of that method, Giganews also does the
same for your posts Dudley. It shows your posts originate from IP
address 207.172.126.29. Based on router naming conventions and
traceroute, it suggests your posts may originate from somewhere in
Pennsylvania.
Bertie's posts, on the other hand, have appeared to originate from
several places using Google and alt.net Usenet provider. If I had to
guess I'd say Bertie possibly works for DHL and may be based in the
UK. Bertie's location anonymity is probably compromised a bit when he
uses Google to post.
Nope, nice try though!
I was once nailed down to the Sultan of Brunei's palace though. TGhat
was clse.
One guy also traced me back to his own living room.
Those were the days.
Bertie
