How Do You Spell IP?
For the people who phone me to complain about something that is posted on Irish KC:
Telling me you never visit the site, and are only familiar with its content because somebody emailed it to you, is not the cleverest thing when you are emailing me, leaving comments on the site, and visiting the site at the same times you always have - all from the same IP address.
It’s especially funny when you tell me it was emailed to you by somebody else who also tells me they don’t visit the site and only are aware of the contents because people are emailing it to them.
Maybe I should say a big thank you to whoever is really visiting the site and then emailing everybody else. And there was me planning to install an “e-mail this post” facility.
