As a netnews neighbor of rutgers, I find it very unusual that
 would have been passed to my site from
rutgers, especially if it is truly a forgery.  However, a clever
miscreant could have done it with NNTP or UUCP if he/she/it has
such connections to rutgers.

Jun 22 15:23	pyrdc	received  ng news.admin.ctl subj 'sendsys' from webber@rutgers.edu (Net.Rarebit)
Jun 22 19:14	rutgers	Duplicate article  rejected. Path: rutgers!webber

Even though pyrnj first received the article via
pyrdc!uunet!husc6!rutgers!webber, we already see a lot of comp.mail.maps
articles coming through that path also.  It may be noteworthy that we
received the 4 messages in the order 3 4 2 1, all through different
paths.  Whoever sent the  series has a
thorough, devious mind, with a knack for obfuscatory tactics.

I cannot judge whether Dr. Webber is innocent or guilty.  I find it
disappointing that Webber, someone with a gift for original thought
(such as USENET could use) has decided to apply himself to creating
havoc, rather than productive efforts.  The same may be said for the
originator of the sendsys messages.  These activities are childish
and beneath contempt.  I will refrain from further comment.
