============================
 RW>> Which, as it turns out, is a fact and not fiction.

 DS> Wrong again.  Her system sent all of the messages out.

 RW> Or so she claims.

janis' system /had/ to have sent them all out or i would not have gottenthem
from rossC's system...

 DS> Some systems did not receive them all.

 RW> One of whom has stated publically that he only got the first page
 RW> directly from 261/38. Oddly enough, he's also a direct link. 

 RW> While that person's downlink has said that he only got the first
 RW> page from 140/1...

wha have other downlinks from 140/1 stated?

 DS> That is not her fault, it is the fault of the system that discarded
 DS> the rest of the messages.

 RW> You mean she didn't deliberately discard 11 of the messages from
 RW> Nick and sent only one page to Seaborn. Where's the fault, her
 RW> system or his? 

how would that even be possible with today's tossing software and the way it
operates? you're talking as if there are separate stages similar to the old
methods of "double tossing" and the like...

 DS>> 5. I looked at Björn's BBS and saw that *HE* was in fact missing
 DS>> those same messages -- ergo he, or one of his links, had killed
 DS>> them.

 RW>> Which was pointed out to you that they won't appear on his BBS,
 RW>> since what goes to his system from Janis' is 'passed through' and
 RW>> won't ever appear on his BBS. I would do the same thing if I were in
 RW>> his position as Editor of Fidonews.

 DS> You don't understand.  He receives messages.  He tosses them onto his
 DS> nntp server (part of his system).

 RW> Which is not a BBS...

that's beside the point... he brings the mail in... some of it passes thru to
other systems... you cannot passthru the same areas that you participate in...
so how can he participate in this area yet have it on passthru? it is not
possible on a single system with a single tosser...

 RW>>> Wrong, as Michiel, who is directly connected to Bjorn has stated
 RW>>> that he's seen all of Nick's messages.

 DS>> Michiel has various links to FIDONEWS.  He has not yet said to my
 DS>> knowledge where he got the messages.

 RW>> He has confirmed that Nick's nodenumber was included in the path,
 RW>> thus all 12 messages were passed to Bjorn's system onto his
 RW>> downlinks.

 DS> Nick's nodenumber would have been included in the path since that is
 DS> where the messages started.  Says nothing about whether or not Björn
 DS> passed them to his downlinks.

yet michael has just stated that he didn't read the messages but hit the [NEXT]
button... if he did that, he cannot know for certain if that system was in the
PATH or not...
