Now think, very very slowly and carefully, about this dorayme:

It is my *news server* that is slow. Not my internet connection.

That is, I see your posts six hours after you make them, because the Bigpond
*news server* is remiss in obtaining posts from nearby servers I presume.

My internet connection has nothing at all to do with this. My internet
connection is fine. It is the *news server* that is at fault. Got that?

Oddly enough I did a test my internet connection tonight, for reasons other
than conversing with you. http://www.speedtest.net/ reports my connection
at 5.7 megabits per second. How does your ADSL[1 or 2] connection compare
with this?

Hmmm.
Then again this has nothing at all to do with fake submit buttons.
