I made no such claim. When I state that I ran one of the computers
that hosted what is widely accepted as the world's first search engine,
it's just a statement that happens to be true.

I didn't make the claim either. But he's getting desperate now. I merely
pointed out that we sold Usenet service to people in the UK.

For a while, this place (indirectly, at least) paid you for it, AIUI.
Plus, your employer is a lot closer to the claim of having invented the
Internet than most.

If you (Sam) were or are in academia, I'm sure you know where I work!

I'm not hiding anything, it seems, and neither are you. Froot Bat, on
the other hand...
