No, it wasn't.  I thought I'd add my confirmation to Jay's message: 
I missed the original call, and a mail message to Peter got me a response
confirming that he is indeed running an STV vote on the aquaria name.
Therefore 8023@ficc.uu.net is the *real* forgery.

Not true.  Someone is trying to discredit any future postings from Peter.

Hard to explain this by stupidity; I'll go with malice this time, Jay.

Does anyone know what will happen when the *real* 8023 from ficc tries
to propagate in a few weeks?
