Hello Bj”rn,

On Tuesday March 26 2019 14:01, you wrote to me:

I did indeed suspect that was what was offered to you. No, it is not what I 
thought you /should/ be considering. But with your scientific background, I 
would have expected you to take a quick look under the hood now that the 
vehicle was accidentally parked on your driveway. Just out of curiosity. I 
certainly would have. Independant of whether I wanted it for myself or not.

Why the pissing contest? I do not know if your SixXs tunnel predated mine or 
not. I did not keep the records after they closed shop. It may or it may not. 
What I do know is that my Fidonet IPv6 connectivity predates yours. I am #4 on 
the list, you are #12. Plus that I have the he.net sage T-shirt...

 BF>    Sometimes I really do not understand you, Michiel. :(

That goes both ways. I suspect that is at least partly due to both of us having 
to make do with a language that is not our native language.

Cheers, Michiel
