As the expression goes, "I wish to clear my name" (read: reputation)....

Yes it does. The way you said that was in a smart-arse way that was demeaning.
If you were to say "Is there evidence that this really is true?" and I then said
what I did, then yes, I would have started the flame war. However, the
smart-arse and the abusing tone taken technically means you started the flame
war by provoking me.

As I said, I invite people to do so.

That is one claim you can NEVER substantiate. I have only ever posted messages
in 9 newsgroups, 6 of which contained you, and 5 of which you have responded to.
4 of those have been the ozemail.* groups, and one is the aus.students for which
the reference is sighted.

Yes it was.

Nope, I have only said this line twice in any newsgroups, and unless you know me
personally off the web, you will never have heard it from me elsewhere.

I invite you, or anyone else, to look through my posts in ozemail.* groups, or
any usenet groups.

That wasn't meant to be anything like I originally claimed. I can't even
remember what I originally claimed. That was just something I added in the end.
That is the reason it is in a new paragraph.
