	What I was trying to say was that evidence/arguments against
one of the three is *not* evidence against any of the others, they
must be dismantled seperately! I was certainly *not* trying to say
that they are not (distantly) related, or that they do not all belong
in net.origins! My main concern is to keep the arguments valid, and
the argument I was addessing most certainly was not valid due to an
invalid form of crossover argumentation.
