Sorry, I was incorrect. That is just what Dreamhost calls their private registration service - https://www.dreamhost.com/legal/proxy-protection/

Also note that North American Cable Television and Internet has this to say (granted it is in a discussion of copyright infringement, but it probably applies to ferreting out the jerkwad.)

As we do not store any content accessed by our users, we are unable to delete any such content that may be infringing. Because we do not log our users’ activities, in order to protect and respect their privacy, we are unable to identify particular users that may be infringing the lawful copyrights of others.

My first was a ‘Quantus’ from a mail order magazine. I had to format the hard drive with their long distance telephone help.
I was like a chimpanzee with a circular saw.

Then a Mac Performa 200 with 80 megs and a squealing modem. Still have it in the attic.
As far as all this technical stuff, I was like ‘8-ball’ and his Sherman tank: “I don’t fix ‘em. I just drive ‘em.”

Yep, I was soooo into DOS, I read everything I could get my hands on.

I love it when the millenials here in the company are having a problem and I go to their computer and put it in DOS mode and start typing stuff. They have no clue as to what I’m doing. To them it’s like ‘magic’.

When one asks what I am doing I simply say, “I’m talking directly to the microprocessor.”

Which is usually followed by, “Oh, okay. Whatever”..................

I enjoy reading the blogs...I hope HG doesn’t get them banned.

Often times it’s the only way I come across interesting news.

So what would your perfect Freep look like?

All vanities stripped...so no more VDH, Scott Adams or Travis McGee.

No blogs, so the only things we’d see are the established, mainstream press, i.e., Fox, ABC, WaPo, the NYT?

And religion threads, or are those vanities that you hate and want banned, also?

Sounds boring to me!

I've never seen either of them post their own material here as a thread.

No blogs

Don't think I've ever seriously suggested any such thing.
I just think they should be posted in full, not excerpted.

Sounds boring to me!

Me too, who would I chastise if everything were done my way?!

Alright, I was wrong.

Sorry about that!

Heh heh, that last line was funny!

See ya’,
