Who cares?
And if I did care who the "cancelmoose" is, I'd care more about the trail
of evidence "Anonymous" thinks links "cancelmoose" to the eponymous moose
at panix.com. Name space collisions are hardly convincing.
Oh, did I tell you I discovered the real identity of Jack the Ripper? A
finger of ripper@netcom.com reveals some very interesting information. Film
at 11.
Once again, anonymity is being used as a cover for cluelessness.

Well, nobody, really. Actually I feel kinda guilty about posting this
in the first place.

Sorry. I did leave out one key piece of information:
> host cm.org
cm.org mail is handled by panix3.panix.com
cm.org mail is handled by not-a-firewall.panix.com
cm.org mail is handled by panix4.panix.com
cm.org mail is handled by panix.com
cm.org mail is handled by panix2.panix.com
That, in conjunction with the fact that moose@cm.org is the email
address given for the cancelmoose, does point to the connection.
However, after a little further investigation, I don't think it really
is Mr. Nagengast. It actually appears that panix.com is running a
little remailer. As Dave Winer would say, cooooool.

You're right. My sincerest apologies.
