[POINTERS] On Vulis' net background

Some *very* informative background data may be found at: http://www.math.harvard.edu/~verbit/scs/cranks/from-Schlomo.html#vulis Of course the title KOTM may also have been fraudulently obtained (if USENET vote forgery bears any relevance...) see: "Fraudulent votes from bwalk.dm.com cited" in (are we surprised?) news.admin.net-abuse.misc Here's a pointer to one archive: http://www2.altavista.digital.com/cgi-bin/news?msg@3945@misc%2enews%2eintern...

I don't know if anyone ever figured out who was forging votes for whom - the May '96 KOTM award was hotly contested, with forgeries flying every which way. If you have way too much time on your hands, read all about it at: http://www.wetware.com/mlegare/kotm/winnersk96.html#may96 -r.w.

Supposedly I won by a 30-vote margin over David C Lawrence (the moderator of news.announce.newgroups), which I'm very proud of. Do take a look at this site and at Misha Verbitsky's archives (taking everything with a grain of salt). It makes good reading. BTW, are _you related to http://206.250.116.19/~netscum/conwayc0.html? --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps

Ah, but did you forge votes FOR yourself??

No, that's an entirely different diseased marsupial. No relation. Nice try, though. Now knock off this silly shit. Legare's not going to give you a second term this easily. :) You have a very strange sense of accomplishment. -r.w.

Good question. That's what Legare seems to claim in his web page. Of course we KNOW that all 600 congressmen and senators REALLY voted from their addresses at bwalk.dm.com... I was cc:'d about 400 votes for David C Lawrence - should I send them to this mailing list? --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
