How many of these claims can you refute? I'll give you a start: Inside is a list of Canadian inventions and Canadian Nobel Laureates.

Update: I've oficially become bored of this guy. I've found his ISP's contact information (it appears he's writing the emails from the State of Texas General Services Commission) and will contact his sysadmin if I get another email from him. Ah, the joys of reverse whois.

Lets not forget the fact that most of the engineers that started the space race for the US at NASA all were Canadians that were part of the Avro Arrow program after the US president screwed us over way back then. Here is a shot I took at the space center proving my point. That is Jim Chamberlain, a fellow BC Canadian.

I can understand your boredom with this nutsack. However, I do find it slightly ammusing that he's coming through the Texas GSC. I used to work with some of those bozos. They actually cost my company a multi-million dollar contract in TX and made the year-plus worth of work (including travel back and forth to Austin and/or El Paso every week for months) completely fruitless.

>> A Man Amused » Saturday, November 23, 2002 06:03 PM

I like his use of "fuck faced asslicker". That has zing to it.

>> whybother? » Saturday, November 23, 2002 09:45 PM

Canada rocks, the US is the gutter of the modern world. Now go kill an Arab.

Uh... did you notice that the post you commented on was A) a list of Canadian inventions and Canadian Nobel Laureates, B) written by a Canadian (hi) and C) mocking the American who sent hatemail to this site?

I find it confusing, given all the above, that you think the post is anti-Canadian. I also find it somewhat interesting that you make all sorts of assumptions about my character, based on a misreading of a single post.

I'd suggest two things to help you: a course in improving your reading comprehension, and treatment for what is obviously a bad case of tourettes syndrome.

>> A Man Amused » Tuesday, September 9, 2003 12:30 PM

Tourettes is only for audible outbursts.

If you write it down, you're just a nasty biatch.
