It is not polite to talk about someone by name in another language! :)

I've put this through babelfish and while I admit it is not a perfect
translation part of it seems to indicate that you think I post things to
merely up the count.   Now when I say "The Italians are beating us" that's
a post to a) alert other Aussies to the fact we are being beaten and
b) increase our loc.au count.  When I talk about _other_ things I do so
because I have something to say, or something to ask, yes it might add to
our post count but that's not why I do it.  Hence my PS which states that
I start threads innocently (meaning not to be controversial or whatever)
rather than to up to the count.  It does up the count, but it is not a trick.

Benjamin's massive crossposting isn't a trick either, because it doesn't
work! :)

Are we clear? Good! :)
And BTW I admit we've lost, what more do you want?!!!! :)

Happy catching up to loc.uk!
