no, i am observant, and you said compression is how modems achieve their 
rated speeds.  which is wrong.  then you reversed and said that the line 
speed was 56k.  i'm using paraphrasing, but that was precisely the argument

it was not the backpedalling that makes me suspicious, but the fact you 
didn't admit to be wrong.

you are using ancient troll methods, whether intentional or not.
