Completely useless when attempting to substantiate that terminally
stupid claim that "virtually every Australian town has ADSL"

The ONLY way you can actually substantiate a claim like
that is to list most of the towns that dont have ADSL and
show that thats a tiny subset of the total towns in Aust.

Your terminally stupid claim that "virtually every
Australian town has ADSL" is just plain wrong.

Sampling is completely useless when attempting to substantiate that
terminally stupid claim that "virtually every Australian town has ADSL"

Thats why I know your terminally stupid claim is just plain wrong.

Wrong again. I choose to spell it that way, stupid.

Like hell you ever did. Even someone as stupid as you should
be able to grasp that that pathetic list of just 15 Aust towns
doesnt qualify as "virtually every Australian town" any time soon.

> Until corrected by evidence to the contrary,
> virtually every Australian town has ADSL.

Pathetic really. The FACT that nothing like "virtually
every Australian town has ADSL" stands regardless.

> My random sample of 15 towns

And thats a pathetically inadequate sample of the total towns in this
country on which to base a claim about "virtually every Australian town"

> shows that all of them have ADSL.

And thats a pathetically inadequate sample of the total towns in this
country on which to base a claim about "virtually every Australian town"

> My random sample of NZ towns show that a lot of them don't have ADSL.

Like I said, sheepshaggerland has always been and always will be,
completely and utterly irrelevant to your terminally stupid claim that
"virtually every Australian town has ADSL" which is just plain wrong.

All the rest of your desperate attempts to bullshit your
way out of your predicament flushed where it belongs.
