   Dave is moving the goal posts. He uses InterNetNews software to   
   run his NotKnow servers, but he obviously has filtered out   
   Idlehands, so when the stats lists are compiled they exclude the   
   filtered posts. But that just means his stats lists are   
   inaccurate, and Dave knows they are, but he continues to post   
   them as though they are the genuine article. The fault is with   
   Dave, because he doesn't want to see posts by Idlehands.   
      
   So I say again, if you know the stats you are posting are wrong,   
   why bother with them? It doesn't make any sense. You claim to be   
   providing a service to readers by supplying newsgroup   
   statistics. For them to have any worth to the people who find   
   them interesting, they need to be right.
