Where's the
"new question"? IT ISN'T! Why? Because here's the old question with wrong or
partial or incomplete information.

If I was the average person searching the web because of a question I had and

that they have tried to hijack the AHR newsgroup which is part of
usenet and make it look like it's theirs.
