I just love your literature;-)

Have your ever thought about becoming an author?

Just in case anyone still out there believes the forger, nym-shifter and
liar HB: Each program on the Pricelessare ISO is fully authorized by
its author. But you don't have to believe me, you can reference this
for yourselves via the message-id below.

Since the Subject is PL CD downloads, I'll put the link above my reply
to the continued kookery about "criminal activity".

People without paranoid fantasies about gangs of fictitious criminals
can get the PL ISOs from <http://downloads.remarqs.net/pl/>, among other
places.

Congrats on figuring it out after all these years. Are you planning to
actually do it or will you spend several more years reading all my
posts?

You're well aware that I understand Hamster better than you do. You
have indeed explained how you use it to insure you read every post from
anyone you claim to have killfiled. IIRC, you first filter them, then
pore through the filter log to make sure you spot all of them, setting
Hamster to get them each of them for you. I've suggested it would be
simpler for you to assign them all a high score so Hamster would just
download them without you having to waste time examining the log line
by line, but you seem to prefer your method of making sure you read
every "killed" post.

> It's not my fault if you don't understand.

It's your fault you made the erroneous claim that you've killfiled
people whose posts you make sure always to read.

I'm not interested in downloading anything you redirect to, so I
haven't paid any attention to whatever you've said about your content
being unlawful.

We've covered your strange notion that the PL ISOs are unlawful before
though, and you were only ever able to convince one sockpuppet of it.

You've said that before, and then you usually make the giant leap to
your conclusion that there's something unlawful happening.

> That means you are unlawfully hosting CD.ISOs on your server.

There's that leap again. You'd need to find something on the ISOs
which its author doesn't want on them in order to back up your
fantasies; you've had years to do that, yet you haven't managed to
come up with anything.

At this point, you've so firmly established that you're a crackpot that
I doubt anyone would bother listening to you if you claimed anything
that might substantiate your longstanding allegations; you'd be
better off just going straight to law enforcement, if you can find any
officers who don't already recognize you as a crackpot.

People without paranoid fantasies about gangs of fictitious criminals
can get the PL ISOs from <http://downloads.remarqs.net/pl/>, among other
places.

The ISOs don't all the freeware that a.c.f put on the lists, just the
stuff whose authors gave permission to redistribute. In case you're
interested in more information, see
